Imprinting antivortex states from ferromagnetic Fe into antiferromagnetic NiO in epitaxial NiO/Fe/Ag(001) microstructures

Abstract: Magnetic vortex and antivortex are the two basic topological states in magnetic systems. While the ferromagnetic (FM) vortex state can be formed spontaneously and be imprinted into an antiferromagnetic (AFM) layer in AFM/FM disks, the antivortex state has never been realized in AFM films. By fabricating single crystalline NiO/Fe/Ag(001) microstructures, we show that the magnetic antivortex state can be created in the Fe microstructures and imprinted into the AFM NiO layer.

“…53 The magnetic properties of composite nanoparticles among noble metals and magnetic metals have been widely investigated during the past few decades. [194][195][196][197][198][199][200] Investigations on the magnetic properties of Fe-Ag composite nanoparticles with different ratios of Fe and Ag, including Fe 90 Ag 10 , 197,201 Fe 75 Ag 25 , 197,202 Fe 55 Ag 45 , 203 Fe 50 Ag 50 , 197 Fe 35 Ag 65 , 204 and Fe 25 Ag 75 , 197,204 suggest that the magnetic properties of composite nanoparticles are strongly dependent on the interactions between the different elements as well as structural arrangement (Fig. 9).…”

“…So far, the single antivortex has been realized in X-shaped, 20) ¨-shaped, 18,19) clover-shaped, 6) pound-key shaped, 21) and ¤-shaped 22) ferromagnetic wires and ferromagnet-antiferromagnet bilayers. 23) To investigate the electric transport properties of the antivortex, the X-shaped cross wire is suitable because there is no short circuit among the wires.…”
