Abstract

The dynamics of a multiferroic domain wall in which an electric field can couple to the magnetization via inhomogeneous magnetoelectric interaction is investigated by the collective-coordinate framework. We show how the electric field is capable of delaying the onset of the Walker breakdown of the domain wall motion, leading to a significant enhancement of the maximum wall velocity. Moreover, we show that in the stationary regime the chirality of the domain wall can be efficiently reversed when the electric field is applied along the direction of the magnetic field. These characteristics suggest that the multiferroic domain wall may provide a new prospective means to design faster and low-power-consumption domain wall devices.
