Asymmetric Magnetization Reversal of Stripe‐Patterned Exchange Bias Layer Systems for Controlled Magnetic Particle Transport

Domain wall movement assisted transport of particles: Exchange-biased samples with designed stripe-domains show strong stray fields and an asymmetric magnetization reversal. Using these characteristics superparamagnetic particles can be trapped and transported directly on the sample over large-scale areas. High particle velocities, small external fields, and automatically reduced particle clustering allow broad applicability of this transport method.
