Magnetic vortex polarity reversal induced gyrotropic motion spectrum splitting in a ferromagnetic disk

Abstract

We investigate the gyrotropic motion of the magnetic vortex core in a chain of a few micron-sized Permalloy disks by electrical resistance measurement with amplitude-modulated magnetic field. We observe a distinctive splitting of the resistance peak due to the resonant vortex-core motion under heightened radio frequency (RF) magnetic field excitation. Our micromagnetic simulation identifies the splitting of the resonant peak as an outcome of vortex polarity reversal under substantial RF amplitudes. This study enhances our understanding of nonlinear magnetic vortex dynamics amidst large RF amplitudes and proposes a potential pathway for spintronic neural computing thanks to their unique and controllable magnetization dynamics.
