We observe the dynamics of a single magnetic vortex in the presence of a random array of pinning sites. At low excitation amplitudes, the vortex core gyrates about its equilibrium position with a frequency that is characteristic of a single pinning site. At high amplitudes, the frequency of gyration is determined by the magnetostatic energy of the entire vortex, which is confined in a micron-scale disk. We observe a sharp transition between these two amplitude regimes that is due to depinning of the vortex core from a local defect. The distribution of pinning sites is determined by mapping fluctuations in the frequency as the vortex core is displaced by a static in-plane magnetic field.

Dislocation pinning plays a vital role in the plastic behaviour of a crystalline solid. Here we report the first observation of the damped oscillations of a mobile dislocation after it gets pinned at an obstacle in the presence of a constant static s hear load. These oscillations are found to be inertial, instead of forced as obtained in the studies of internal friction of solid. The rate of damping enables us to determine the effective mass of the dislocation. Nevertheless, the observed relation between the oscillation frequency and the link length is found to be anomalous, when compared with the theoretical results in the framework of Koehlers vibrating string model. We assign this anomaly to the improper boundary conditions employed in the treatment. Finally, we propose that the inertial oscillations may offer a plausible explanation of the electromagnetic emissions during material deformation and seismic activities.
In elastically coupled multiferroic heterostructures that exhibit full domain correlations between ferroelectric and ferromagnetic sub-systems, magnetic domain walls are firmly pinned on top of ferroelectric domain boundaries. In this work we investi gate the influence of pinned magnetic domain walls on the magnetization reversal process in a Co40Fe40B20 wedge film that is coupled to a ferroelectric BaTiO3 substrate via interface strain transfer. We show that the magnetic field direction can be used to select between two distinct magnetization reversal mechanisms, namely (1) double switching events involving alternate stripe domains at a time or (2) synchronized switching of all domains. Furthermore, scaling of the switching fields with domain width and film thickness is also found to depend on field orientation. These results are explained by considering the dissimilar energies of the two types of pinned magnetic domain walls that are formed in the system.
We investigate the dynamics of BPS vortices in the presence of magnetic impurities taking the form of axially-symmetric localised lumps and delta-functions. We present numerical results for vortices on flat space, as well as exact results for vortice s on hyperbolic space in the presence of delta-function impurities. In fact, delta-function impurities of appropriate strength can be captured within the moduli space approximation by keeping one or more of the vortices fixed. We also show that previous work on vortices on the 2-sphere extends naturally to the inclusion of delta-function impurities.
Model of quantum depinning of magnetic vortex cores from line defects in a disk geometry and under the application of an in-plane magnetic field has been developed within the framework of the Caldeira-Leggett theory. The corresponding instanton solut ions are computed for several values of the magnetic field. Expressions for the crossover temperature Tc and for the depinning rate Gamma(T) are obtained. Fitting of the theory parameters to experimental data is also presented.
We investigate the effect of the magnetic anisotropy ($K_z$) on the static and dynamic properties of magnetic vortices in small disks. Our micromagnetic calculations reveal that for a range of $K_z$ there is an enlargement of the vortex core. We anal yze the influence of $K_z$ on the dynamics of the vortex core magnetization reversal under the excitation of a pulsed field. The presence of $K_z$, which leads to better resolved vortex structures, allows us to discuss in more details the role played by the in-plane and perpendicular components of the gyrotropic field during the vortex-antivortex nucleation and annihilation.
