Abstract:
The resonance property of a magnetic vortex contained within a micron-sized square Py dot was detected using an amplitude-modulated magnetic field excitation technique. We found a significant modulation of the resonant spectra as the external magnetic field changes. The Lorentzian-like spectrum changes from a peak to a dip via a transition of anti-Lorentzian-like spectra. By conducting the micromagnetic simulations, we confirmed that the transition behavior results from the unusual resistance change depending on the vortex core center position. Additionally, the power dependence of the anti-Lorentzian-like spectra revealed a fairly persistent coexistence of peak and dip. Thus, the tunable spectra suggest one way to develop an integratable radiofrequency microcircuits.

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...
