Abstract

The effects of the magnitude of applied field, cutting area and cell size of the element array on the 'seed' induced domain wall propagation were studied. Three different magnetic reversal mechanisms under different applied fields were investigated. Results showed that an applied field with magnitude around 0.7 or 0.8 T and an element array with cutting area less than 10 nm×10 nm are required to minimize the effect of the thermal fluctuations on the switching time.
