- Splitting of a moving transverse domain wall in a magnetic nanostripe in a transverse field
Splitting of a moving transverse domain wall in a magnetic nanostripe in a transverse field
in: Physical Review B (2010)
The field-driven domain-wall dynamics in magnetic nanostripes under the influence of transverse fields was examined experimentally and by numerical simulations. For a small range of transverse fields in a regime below the Walker field an unexpected instantaneous change in the domain-wall velocity was found. Micromagnetic simulations have shown that this peculiar behavior is caused by a transformation of the moving asymmetric transverse wall: the wall is stretched along the nanostripe due to different velocities of the upper and lower half antivortices constituting the domain wall.
