Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The goal of this study was to elucidate the effect of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) on the magnetic domain wall (DW) dynamics. In FY 2014, I developed DW measurement system to investigate the real time DW dynamics. Using this setup, I proposed several ways to quantify the DMI magnetic heterostructures. I have also shown an evidence of magnetic DW oscillator in FY 2014. In FY 2015, I tried to elucidate the underlying physics of DW dynamics in the presence of DMI. As a result, I have found that the DW motion becomes topologically protected in the presence of DMI. I also have found that the DW motion shows dimensional transition from 2 dimension to 1 dimension. Based on the soliton approach, I also found that the 2 dimensional DW motion can be simplified to 1 dimensional motion in the presence of DMI. I have also found the evidence of DMI in ferrimagnetic systems. Overall, all the goals, which were originally proposed in this project, have been suuccessfully addressed.
