Structure and dynamics of magnetic domain walls in multi-sublattice magnetic oxides by Huang, Siying

“…We propose measuring the DW velocity with a transverse field applied to probe this field-like torque, and present experimental evidence. We investigated the DW depinning dynamics in Pt/BiYIG thin film, presenting a phase diagram of this pinning event, which proves the crucial role of minimizing the pinning effect in achieving fast DW velocity. …”
