Deterministic control of magnetic vortex wall chirality by electric field (2017)
Journal Article
Beardsley, R., Bowe, S., Parkes, D., Reardon, C., Edmonds, K., Gallagher, B., Cavill, S., & Rushforth, A. (2017). Deterministic control of magnetic vortex wall chirality by electric field. Scientific Reports, 7, Article 7613. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-017-07944-9

Concepts for information storage and logical processing based on magnetic domain walls have great potential for implementation in future information and communications technologies. To date, the need to apply power hungry magnetic fields or heat diss... Read More about Deterministic control of magnetic vortex wall chirality by electric field.

The effect of dynamical compressive and shear strain on magnetic anisotropy in a low symmetry ferromagnetic film (2017)
Journal Article
Linnik, T., Kats, V., Jäger, J., Salasyuk, A., Yakovlev, D., Rushforth, A., Akimov, A., Kalashnikova, A., Bayer, M., & Scherbakov, A. (2017). The effect of dynamical compressive and shear strain on magnetic anisotropy in a low symmetry ferromagnetic film. Physica Scripta, 92(5), Article 054006. https://doi.org/10.1088/1402-4896/aa6943

Dynamical strain generated upon excitation of a metallic film by a femtosecond laser pulse may become a versatile tool enabling control of magnetic state of thin _lms and nanostructures via inverse magnetostriction on a picosecond time scale. Here we... Read More about The effect of dynamical compressive and shear strain on magnetic anisotropy in a low symmetry ferromagnetic film.

Effect of lithographically-induced strain relaxation on the magnetic domain configuration in microfabricated epitaxially grown Fe81Ga19 (2017)
Journal Article
Beardsley, R. P., Parkes, D. E., Zemen, J., Bowe, S., Edmonds, K. W., Reardon, C., Maccherozzi, F., Isakov, I., Warburton, P. A., Campion, R. P., Gallagher, B. L., Cavill, S. A., & Rushforth, A. W. (2017). Effect of lithographically-induced strain relaxation on the magnetic domain configuration in microfabricated epitaxially grown Fe81Ga19. Scientific Reports, 7(1), Article 42107. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep42107

We investigate the role of lithographically-induced strain relaxation in a micron-scaled device fabricated from epitaxial thin films of the magnetostrictive alloy Fe81Ga19. The strain relaxation due to lithographic patterning induces a magnetic aniso...
