Static and dynamic characteristics of magnetism in permalloy oval nanoring by micromagnetic simulation

摘要

Due to its potential application in magnetic memory, the vortex magnetization configuration has drawn much attention, which had been found in many magnetic nanostructure. In this paper, static and dynamic characteristics of magnetism in permalloy oval nanoring are investigated with varying thickness and arm width via micromagnetic simulation. Two magnetization configuration (vortex and onion states) were found in oval nanoring and the vortex state is a stable state. Although onion is a metastable state, it become more stable with the decrease of thickness. The magnetic hysteresis loop along long axis of oval nanoring is simulated and coercive forces are investigated as function of arm width and thickness. Coercive force increases firstly and then decrease with the increase of thickness. In meanwhile, the dynamic magnetic susceptibility of vortex state in oval nanoring is simulated for varying arm width and thickness. Uniform resonance mode and edge resonance mode can be found when thickness is above 25 nm. However, there is a single uniform resonance mode in oval nanoring with thickness less 20 nm. The resonance frequency can be significantly modulated in the region of 8.2-13.7 GHz when thickness changes from 4 to 100 nm.
