  • Patent number: 11810701
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a device and method for forming skyrmion in a magnetic thin film. A skyrmion forming method comprises aligning the surface of the magnetic thin film and a horizontal magnetic field to be applied to the magnetic thin film and applying the horizontal magnetic field and a vertical magnetic field to the magnetic thin film. Accordingly, it is possible to form the bubble skyrmion easily even in the case of a wide width of a stripe formed on the magnetic thin film.

  • Patent number: 11193988
    Abstract: Provided is a method of measuring a magnitude of magnetization of a perpendicular magnetic thin film, including: forming a stripe pattern in which a first magnetic domain that extends in a y direction and is magnetized in a z direction and a second magnetic domain that extends in the y direction and is magnetized in a direction opposite to the z direction are arranged alternately in an x direction, in a perpendicular magnetic thin film that extends in an xy plane; changing widths in the x direction, of the first and second magnetic domains by applying a magnetic field having a predetermined magnitude, in the z direction, to the perpendicular magnetic thin film; and calculating an absolute value of the magnetization of the perpendicular magnetic thin film on the basis of a ratio between the widths in the x direction, of the first magnetic domain and the second magnetic domain.

  • Patent number: 10937949
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of forming a doughnut-shaped skyrmion, the method including heating a local area of a vertical magnetic thin film magnetized in a first direction, which is any one of an upward direction and a downward direction, applying a magnetic field having a second direction, which is opposite the first direction, and having intensity higher than coercive force of the vertical magnetic thin film to the vertical magnetic thin film to form a first area magnetized in the second direction, applying a magnetic field having the second direction to the vertical magnetic thin film to form a second area, which is an extension of the first area, and applying a magnetic field having the first direction to the vertical magnetic thin film to form a third area magnetized in the first direction in the second area.

  • Patent number: 10026495
    Abstract: A method of controlling a magnetization state using an imprinting technique may be provided. The method may include moving first and second magnetic structures, which have different magnetization states, toward each other and changing a magnetization state of the first or second magnetic structure, when a distance between the first and second magnetic structures is reduced. A magnetic field, which is produced by a magnetization state of one of the first and second magnetic structures, may be used to align a magnetization state of the other, when the magnetization state of the first or second magnetic structure is changed.

  • Publication number: 20100085659
    Abstract: An information storage device includes a magnetic track and a pinning element for pinning the magnetic domain wall. The magnetic track includes a plurality of magnetic domains and a magnetic domain wall arranged between each pair of adjacent magnetic domains. The pinning element is configured to apply a magnetic field to pin the magnetic domain wall to the magnetic track. The magnetic field may have the same magnetization direction as the magnetic domain wall.
