[17p-P10-82] Correlation between Magnetic Properties and Depinning Field in Field-Driven Domain Wall Dynamics in GdFeCo Ferrimagnets
Keywords:Ferrimagnets, Field-Driven Domain Wall Dynamics
For this study, GdFeCo films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were prepared.The DW velocity v was measured as a function of an applied magnetic field μ0H at different temperatures T by use of a real-time DW detection technique. We find that the depinning field μ0Hdep monotonically decreases as T increases. Furthermore, we find that μ0Hdep is proportional to (μ0HK/MS)1/2, where MS is the saturation magnetization and μ0HK is the magnetic anisotropy field. This correlation between μ0Hdep and the magnetic properties is understood in terms of the creep scaling law.
