Dynamics of Vortex Core Switching in Ferromagnetic Nanodisks

Dynamics of magnetic vortex core switching in nanometer-scale permalloy disk, having a single vortex ground state, was investigated by micromagnetic modeling. When an in-plane magnetic field pulse with an appropriate strength and duration is applied to the vortex structure, additional two vortices, i.e., a circular- and an anti-vortex, are created near the original vortex core. Sequentially, the vortex-antivortex pair annihilates. A spin wave is created at the annihilation point and propagated through the entire element; the relaxed state for the system is the single vortex state with a switched vortex core.

Nonequilibrium Extension of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert Equation for Magnetic Systems

Using the invariant operator method for an effective Hamiltonian including the radiation-spin interaction, we describe the quantum theory for magnetization dynamics when the spin system evolves nonadiabatically and out of equilibrium, $d \hatρ/dt \neq 0$. It is shown that the vector parameter of the invariant operator and the magnetization defined with respect to the density operator, both satisfying the quantum Liouville equation, still obey the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation.
