Field-driven domain wall motion in ferromagnetic nanowires with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

POSTER

Abstract

Field-driven domain-wall (DW) motion in ferromagnetic nanowires with easy- and hard-axis anisotropies was studied theoretically and numerically in the presence of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. We proposed a new trial function and found the exact solution for the DW motion along a uniaxial nanowire driven by an external magnetic field. A new strategy was suggested to speed up the DW motion in a uniaxial magnetic nanowire with large DMI parameters. In the presence of the hard-axis anisotropy, we found that the breakdown field and velocity of the DW motion was strongly affected by the strength and sign of the DMI parameter under external fields. The work may be useful for future magnetic information storage devices based on the DW motion.
