Pinning of domain walls in two-layer ferromagnetic nanowire with scattering fields of nanoparticles

The results of a micromagnetic simulation of the pinning-depinning processes of a domain wall (DW) in a rectangular ferromagnetic nanowire (NW) consisting of two magnetic layers with scattering fields of two rectangular two-layer nanoparticles (NPs) located on NW opposite sides and oriented perpendicular to its axis are presented. The features of magnetization reversal of this system in the external magnetic field are studied depending on direction of the magnetic moments of the nanoparticle layers. The value of the depinning field in such a system depends essentially on mutual orientation of NP magnetic moments and NW magnetization. The possibility to realize a magnetic logic cell performing the “conjunction” operation of ternary logic is discussed.
