Abstract
- This study investigates the interaction between transverse head-to-head domain walls (THHDWs) in permalloy nanowires and magnetostatic charges located within a tripod structure in close proximity. This interaction enables remote pinning of the THHDW. Eight different interactions are measurable, depending on the initialising field sequence. The pinning strengths of an attractive potential well and a repulsive barrier are compared in this paper. Based on experimental measurements, micromagnetic simulations, and a monopolar analytical model, we demonstrate that pinning strength depends on the inhomogeneous charge distribution within the tripod and the relative orientation of the THHDW which faces the tripod.
