Abstract
Magnetic vortex dynamics in nanoscale structures is currently a topic of intensive research not only from a fundamental physics point of view but also for their potential use in future generation spintronics and magnetic random access memories. We propose a method, where one can independently control the magnetic vortex polarization and chirality states by a combination of fine-tuning the applied magnetic field and breaking the geometrical symmetry of the magnetic nanostructure. Numerical simulations corroborate our proposal of achieving vortex switchability for the two different geometries we investigate: the indented disk and notched disk structures. Our results suggest that the notched disk structure offers more robust vortex dynamics and better switching characteristics, which makes this geometry ideal for use as a vortex-based magnetic memory device.
