Abstract

The dynamic magnetization process in thin film platelets is studied by numerical micromagnetics. Simulations are conducted without the addition of the phenomenological damping term in the Landau–Lifshitz equation. Excess Zeeman energy is transferred to magnetostatic-exchange coupled spin waves. This allows the average magnetization to relax towards the equilibrium configuration. The strength of the applied field and the size of the platelet both affect how much energy can be transferred to the spin wave modes. For large enough platelets and fields that are not too large, nearly complete reversal can be obtained without a mechanism to dissipate magnetic energy.
