Simulation of Oscillatory Domain Wall Motion Driven by Spin Waves in Nanostrip with Perpendicular Magnetic Anisotropy
ORAL
Abstract
We numerically investigate the spin waves (SW) induced domain wall (DW) oscillatory motion in a nanostrip with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy by means of micromagnetic simulation. SW carries spin angular momentum and can interact with DWs via Spin Transfer Torque (STT). Propagating SW can drive a DW motion depending on the in-plane tilt angle $\varphi $ of the wall magnetization. We calculate the instantaneous velocity of DWs as a function of $\varphi $with different SW frequency $f$. We find that the DW motion under propagating SW depends not only on the frequencies $f$, but also on the in-plane tilt angle $\varphi $. The nanostrip considered is 50 nm wide and 4000 nm long. A DW at the center is subjected to a SW source 500 nm apart on the left with amplitude in the transverse direction and varying frequency $f$. The motions of the DW induced by the SW are accompanied by in-plane rotation of magnetization of DW. Once rotated by 90 degrees, the DW shows a backward motion towards the SW source. The oscillatory amplitude and frequency of the DW motion is analyzed. A phase diagram will be presented. This study provides new perspectives for the control and manipulation of DW in a nanostrip.
