Abstract:
Non-equilibrium domain wall dynamics on a perpendicularly magnetized nanowire manipulated by the transverse magnetic field pulse are numerically investigated. We systematically observe the large displacements of the chiral domain wall and the domain wall tilting angles generated by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction during the competition between the precession torque and the magnetic damping process. The magnetic-property-dependent domain wall displacements exhibit that the lower magnetic damping constants and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya energy densities generate the longer transition times and the significant larger domain wall displacements for the non-equilibrium magnetization dynamics. Compare with the spin-polarized-current-driven domain wall dynamics, the transverse magnetic field pulses guarantee faster domain wall movements without Walker breakdown and lower energy consumptions because it is free from the serious Joule heating issue. Finally, we demonstrate successive chiral domain wall displacements, which are necessary to develop multilevel resistive memristors for next-generation artificial intelligent devices based on magnetic domain wall motions.

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...
