Domain Wall Dynamics under an In-Plane Rotating Magnetic Field in a Nanowire with Perpendicular Magnetic Anisotropy

摘要

As an alternative to current or static magnetic field driven domain wall (DW) motion, we studied the dynamics of DW motion under an in-plane rotating magnetic field (IRMF) in a metallic nanowire with a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. An equation describing the DW motion was obtained with a one-dimensional analytical model based on a collective coordinate approach. The DW velocity can easily be controlled up to hundreds of meters per second by varying the IRMF amplitude and frequency. The validity of the equation for DW motion was confirmed with micromagnetic simulations.
