Simulation of domain formation and domain coarsening in antiferromagnetic multilayers
Source abstract
Abstract
A Monte Carlo simulation of patch-domain formation and domain coarsening in antiferromagnetically coupled compensated multilayers with fourfold in-plane anisotropy is presented. The simulation accounts for both the emergence of small patch domains on unsaturation and the domain coarsening on spin flop. The autocorrelation function of the simulated domain pattern is in good agreement with published Kerr microscopic images.
