Control of Double-Vortex Domain Configurations in a Shape-Engineered Trilayer Nanomagnet System
A shape-engineered trilayer ferromagnetic/non-magnetic/ferromagnetic nano-structure is lithographically fabricated to support four stable flux-closure domain configurations at remanence. Quantitative phase measurements using electron holography reveal the detailed magnetization reversal process and demonstrate how four domain states with distinct vortex chirality combinations can be controllably achieved by systematic manipulation of the applied magnetic field (see image).
