We use spatially resolved magneto-optical Kerr microscopy to track the complete microstates of arrays of perpendicular anisotropy nanomagnets during magnetization hysteresis cycles. These measurements allow us to disentangle the intertwined effects of nearest neighbor interaction, disorder, and stochasticity on magnetization switching. We find that the nearest neighbor correlations depend on both interaction strength and disorder. We also find that although the global characteristics of the hysteretic switching are repeatable, the exact microstate sampled is stochastic with the behavior of individual islands varying between nonminally identical runs.

We have studied frustrated kagome arrays and unfrustrated honeycomb arrays of magnetostatically-interacting single-domain ferromagnetic islands with magnetization normal to the plane. The measured pairwise spin correlations of both lattices can be re
produced by models based solely on nearest-neighbor correlations. The kagome array has qualitatively different magnetostatics but identical lattice topology to previously-studied artificial spin ice systems composed of in-plane moments. The two systems show striking similarities in the development of moment pair correlations, demonstrating a universality in artificial spin ice behavior independent of specific realization in a particular material system.
Magnetization dynamics in an artificial square spin-ice lattice made of Ni80Fe20 with magnetic field applied in the lattice plane is investigated by broadband ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The experimentally observed dispersion shows a rich s
pectrum of modes corresponding to different magnetization states. These magnetization states are determined by exchange and dipolar interaction between individual islands, as is confirmed by a semianalytical model. In the low field regime below 400 Oe a hysteretic behavior in the mode spectrum is found. Micromagnetic simulations reveal that the origin of the observed spectra is due to the initialization of different magnetization states of individual nanomagnets. Our results indicate that it might be possible to determine the spin-ice state by resonance experiments and are a first step towards the understanding of artificial geometrically frustrated magnetic systems in the high-frequency regime.
We present the dynamic response of a connected Kagome artificial spin ice with emphasis on the effect of the vertex magnetization configuration on the mode characteristics. We use broadband ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectroscopy and micromagnetic
simulations to identify and characterize resonant modes. We find the mode frequencies of elongated, single-domain film segments not only depend on the orientation of their easy-axis with respect to the applied magnetic field, but also depend on the vertex magnetization configuration, which suggests control over the FMR mode can be accomplished by altering the vertex magnetization. Moreover, we study differences between the vertex center mode (VCM) and the localized domain wall (LDW) mode. We show that the LDW mode acts as a signature of the domain wall (DW) nucleation process and the DW dynamics active during segment reversal events. The results show the VCM and LDW modes can be controlled using a field protocol, which has important implications for applications in magnonic and spintronic devices.
We have measured the angular dependence of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectra for Fibonacci-distorted, Kagome artificial spin ice (ASI). The number of strong modes in the FMR spectra depend on the orientation of the applied DC magnetic field. In a
ddition, discontinuities observed in the FMR field-frequency dispersion curves also depend on DC field orientation, and signal a multi-step DC magnetization reversal, which is caused by the reduced energy degeneracy of Fibonacci-distorted vertices. The results suggest the orientation of applied magnetic field and severity of Fibonacci distortion constitute control variables for FMR modes and multi-step reversal in future magnonic devices and magnetic switching systems.
Collective dynamics in lithographically-defined artificial spin ices offer profound insights into emergent correlations and phase transitions of geometrically-frustrated Ising spin systems. Their temporal and spatial evolution are often simulated usi
ng kinetic Monte Carlo simulations, which rely on the precise knowledge of the switching barriers to obtain predictive results in agreement with experimental observations. In many cases, however, the barriers are derived from simplified assumptions only, and do not take into account the full physical picture of nanomagnetic switching. Here we describe how the immediate magnetic environment of a nanomagnet reversing via quasi-coherent rotation can induce clockwise and counter-clockwise switching channels with different barrier energies. This barrier splitting for chiral reversal channels can be sizeable and, as string-method micromagnetic simulations show, is relevant for artificial spin ice systems made of both exchange -- as well as magnetostatically --dominated units. Due to the barrier splitting (and further reductions due to non-uniform reversal) transition rates can be exponentially enhanced by several orders of magnitude compared to mean-field predictions, especially in the limit of rare switching events where thermal excitation is less likely. This leads to significantly faster relaxation time scales and modified spatial correlations. Our findings are thus of integral importance to achieve realistic kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of emergent correlations in artificial spin systems, magnonic crystals, or the evolution of nanomagnetic logic circuits.
