Theoretically, we study the dynamics of a current induced domain wall in the bi-layer structure consists of a ferromagnetic layer and a non-magnetic metal layer with strong spin-orbit coupling in the presence of spin-Hall effect. The analytical expressions for the velocity and width of the domain wall interms of excitation angle are obtained by solving the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation with adiabatic, nonadiabatic and spin Hall effect-spin transfer torques using Schryers and Walker's method. Numerical results show that the occurance of polarity switching in the domain wall is observed only above the threshold current density. The presence of transverse magnetic field along with spin Hall effect-spin transfer torque enchances the value of the threshold current density, and the corresponding saturated velocity at the threshold current density is also increased., Comment: 8 figure, 15 pages

The dynamics of transverse Neel domain wall in a ferromagnetic nanostrip in the presence of driving field, current and transverse magnetic field is investigated by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert(LLG) equation with the adiabatic and non-adiabatic spin-transfer torques both analytically and numerically. The analytical expressions for the velocity, width, excitation angle and displacement for the domain wall are obtained by using small angle approximation along with Walkers trial function. The results show that the initial velocity of the domain wall can be controlled by the adiabatic spin-transfer torque and the saturated velocity can be controlled by the non-adiabatic spin-transfer torque and driving field. The large increase in the saturated velocity of the domain wall driven by current and field due to the transverse magnetic field is identified through the presence of driving field. There is no impact in the saturated velocity of the domain wall driven by current from the transverse magnetic field. For the domain wall driven by the current in the presence of the transverse magnetic field, the saturated velocity remains constant. The transverse magnetic field along with current and driving field is more advantageous that the transverse magnetic field along with current for increasing the saturated velocity of the domain wall. The numerical results showed that the saturated velocity is increased by the transverse magnetic field with the irrespective of the directions of the driving field and current further it is higher and lower when the directions of driving field and current are antiparallel and parallel respectively. The obtained analytical solutions are closely coincided with the computed numerical results.
