Current‐Induced Domain Wall Dynamics in Pt/Co/Ni/Co Nanoribbons With Curvilinear Cross‐Sections

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
3D curvilinear magnetic racetrack nanoribbons are formed with concave and convex cross‐sections using an advanced multi‐photon 3D printer. The curvature is shown to strongly affect current‐induced domain wall motion along the nanoribbons. In nanoribbons with cross‐sections that have both concave and convex segments, the velocities of domain walls with ...
