Abstract

Abstract A micromagnetic code based on Voronoi tessellation and the non-uniform fast Fourier transform (NUFFT) method is presented. The code is capable of efficiently and accurately simulating magnetization dynamics in large and structurally complex granular systems, such as multilayer granular media used for perpendicular magnetic recording, bit patterned media, granular nanowires, and read heads. In these systems the granular microstructure and distributions in grain and interface properties play an important role in device performance. The presented Voronoi simulator allows comprehensive studies to be performed as it accounts for the detailed granular microstructure and distributions that characterize true systems. Simulation time is greatly reduced by a non-uniform fast Fourier transform algorithm and implementation on graphics processing units (GPUs). Simulations of conventional magnetic recording, heat-assisted magnetization reversal, domain wall dynamics in granular nanowires, and particulate tape recording are presented.
