Apparent ferromagnetism in the pinwheel artificial spin ice [PDF]
Magnetic artificial spin ice provides examples of how competing interactions between magnetic nanoelements can lead to a range of fascinating and unusual phenomena. We examine theoretically a class of spin ice tilings, called pinwheel, for which near degeneracy of spin configuration energies can be achieved.

A Representation of Artificial Spin Ice for Evolutionary Search [PDF]
Arrangements of nanomagnets known as artificial spin ices show great potential for use in unconventional computation. The majority of exploratory work done in this area considers just a small handful of well studied geometries (nanomagnetic arrangements), and uses them as if they were a black box.

Crystallizing Kagome Artificial Spin Ice
Artificial spin ices are engineered arrays of dipolarly coupled nanobar magnets. They enable direct investigations of fascinating collective phenomena from their diverse microstates. However, experimental access to ground states in the geometrically frustrated systems has proven difficult, limiting studies and applications of novel properties and ...

Spin wave spectral probing of degenerate microstates in building-block of square artificial spin ice [PDF]
We have investigated the spin wave modes of dipolar coupled, highly shape anisotropic magnetic nanoislands forming square artificial spin ice system by performing micromagnetic simulations using MuMax3 in combination with Matlab coding.

flatspin: A large-scale artificial spin ice simulator [PDF]
We present flatspin, a novel simulator for systems of interacting mesoscopic spins on a lattice, also known as artificial spin ice (ASI). Our magnetic switching criteria enables ASI dynamics to be captured in a dipole model. Through GPU acceleration, flatspin can simulate realistic dynamics of millions of magnets within practical time frames.

Spin-Wave Dynamics and Symmetry Breaking in an Artificial Spin Ice [PDF]
Artificial spin ices are periodic arrangements of interacting nanomagnets successfully used to investigate emergent phenomena in the presence of geometric frustration. Recently, it has been shown that artificial spin ices can be used as building blocks for creating functional materials, such as magnonic crystals, and support a large number of ...

Emerging Chirality in Artificial Spin Ice [PDF]
Chiral Ice Water ice, even at the lowest temperatures, is not completely “frozen”—its lattice structure allows for multiple equivalent ground states and it thus retains finite entropy even at absolute zero. Equivalent structures are realized in frustrated magnets called spin ices, where spins interact ferromagnetically, and in ...

Perpendicular-anisotropy artificial spin ice with spontaneous ordering: a platform for reservoir computing with flexible timescales [PDF]
Arrays of coupled nanomagnets have wide-ranging fundamental and practical applications in artificial spin ices, reservoir computing and spintronics. However, lacking in these fields are nanomagnets with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy with sufficient ...
