Nanodots with magnetic vortices have many potential applications, such asmagnetic memories (VRAMs) and spin transfer nano-oscillators (STNOs). Adding aperpendicular anisotropy term to the magnetic energy of the nanodot it becomespossible to tune the vortex core properties. This can be obtained, e.g., in Conanodots by varying the thickness of the Co layer in a Co/Pt stack. Here wediscuss the spin configuration of circular and elliptical nanodots fordifferent perpendicular anisotropies; we show for nanodisks that micromagneticsimulations and analytical results agree. Increasing the perpendicularanisotropy, the vortex core radii increase, the phase diagrams are modified andnew configurations appear; the knowledge of these phase diagrams is relevantfor the choice of optimum nanodot dimensions for applications. MFM measurementson Co/Pt multilayers confirm the trend of the vortex core diameters withvarying Co layer thicknesses.
