We propose a time-delay oscillator with Mackey-Glass nonlinearity based on a pinned magnetic domain wall in a thin film nanostrip. Through spin transfer torques, electric currents applied along the strip cause the domain wall to deform and displace away from a geometrical pinning site, which can be converted into a nonlinear transfer function through a suitable choice of a readout. This readout serves as a delay signal, which is subsequently fed back into the applied current with amplification. With micromagnetics simulations, we study the role of the readout position, time delay, and feedback gain on the dynamics of this domain wall. In particular, we highlight regimes in which self-sustained oscillations and complex transients are possible.

It is well established that the spin-orbit interaction in heavy metal/ferromagnet heterostructures leads to a significant interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction (DMI) that modifies the internal structure of magnetic domain walls (DWs) to favor N{e}el over Bloch type configurations. However, the impact of such a transition on the structure and stability of internal DW defects (e.g., vertical Bloch lines) has not yet been explored. We present a combination of analytical and micromagnetic calculations to describe a new type of topological excitation called a DW Skyrmion characterized by a $360^circ$ rotation of the internal magnetization in a Dzyaloshinskii DW. We further propose a method to identify DW Skyrmions experimentally using Fresnel mode Lorentz TEM; simulated images of DW Skyrmions using this technique are presented based on the micromagnetic results.

The scalability of quantum networks based on solid-state spin qubits is hampered by the short range of natural spin-spin interactions. Here, we propose a scheme to entangle distant spin qubits via the soft modes of an antiferromagnetic domain wall (D W). As spin qubits, we focus on quantum impurities (QIs) placed in the vicinity of an insulating antiferromagnetic thin film. The low-energy modes harbored by the DW are embedded in the antiferromagnetic bulk, whose intrinsic spin-wave dynamics have a gap that can exceed the THz range. By setting the QI frequency and the temperature well within the bulk gap, we focus on the dipolar interaction between the QI and two soft modes localized at the DW. One is a string-like mode associated with transverse displacements of the DW position, while the dynamics of the other, corresponding to planar rotations of the Neel order parameter, constitute a spin superfluid. By choosing the geometry in which the QI does not couple to the string mode, we use an external magnetic field to control the gap of the spin superfluid and the qubit-qubit coupling it engenders. We suggest that a tunable micron-range coherent coupling between qubits can be established using common antiferromagnetic materials.

We study the formation and control of metastable states of pairs of domain walls in cylindrical nanowires of small diameter where the transverse walls are the lower energy state. We show that these pairs form bound states under certain conditions, wi th a lifetime as long as 200ns, and are stabilized by the influence of a spin polarized current. Their stability is analyzed with a model based on the magnetostatic interaction and by 3D micromagnetic simulations. The apparition of bound states could hinder the operation of devices.

Comprehensive control of the domain wall nucleation process is crucial for spin-based emerging technologies ranging from random-access and storage-class memories over domain-wall logic concepts to nanomagnetic logic. In this work, focused Ga+ ion-irr adiation is investigated as an effective means to control domain-wall nucleation in Ta/CoFeB/MgO nanostructures. We show that analogously to He+ irradiation, it is not only possible to reduce the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy but also to increase it significantly, enabling new, bidirectional manipulation schemes. First, the irradiation effects are assessed on film level, sketching an overview of the dose-dependent changes in the magnetic energy landscape. Subsequent time-domain nucleation characteristics of irradiated nanostructures reveal substantial increases in the anisotropy fields but surprisingly small effects on the measured energy barriers, indicating shrinking nucleation volumes. Spatial control of the domain wall nucleation point is achieved by employing focused irradiation of pre-irradiated magnets, with the diameter of the introduced circular defect controlling the coercivity. Special attention is given to the nucleation mechanisms, changing from a Stoner-Wohlfarth particles coherent rotation to depinning from an anisotropy gradient. Dynamic micromagnetic simulations and related measurements are used in addition to model and analyze this depinning-dominated magnetization reversal.
Controllable artificial pinning is indispensable in numerous domain-wall (DW) devices, such as memory, sensor, logic gate, and neuromorphic computing hardware. The high-accuracy determination of the effective spring constant of the pinning potential, however, remains challenging, because the extrinsic pinning is often mixed up with intrinsic ones caused by materials defects and randomness. Here, we study the collective dynamics of interacting DWs in a racetrack with pinning sites of alternate distances. By mapping the governing equations of DW motion to the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model and evaluating the quantized Zak phase, we predict two topologically distinct phases in the racetrack. Robust edge state emerges at either one or both ends depending on the parity of the DW number and the ratio of alternating intersite lengths. We show that the in-gap DW oscillation frequency has a fixed value which depends only on the geometrical shape of the pinning notch, and is insensitive to device imperfections and inhomogeneities. We propose to accurately quantify the spring coefficient that equals the square of the robust DW frequency multiplied by its constant mass. Our findings suggest as well that the DW racetrack is an ideal platform to study the topological phase transition.
