Abstract
Static magnetic configurations of thin circular soft (permalloy) magnetic nanodots, coupled to a hard antidot matrix with perpendicular magnetization, are studied by micromagnetic simulations. It is demonstrated, that dipolar fields of the antidot matrix promotes the formation of a magnetic vortex state in nanodots. The vortex is the dot ground state at zero external field in ultrathin nanodots with diameters as low as 60 nm, that is far beyond the vortex stability range in an isolated permalloy nanodot. Depending on the geometry and antidot matrix material it is possible to stabilize either radial vortex state or unconventional vortices with the angle between in-plane magnetization and radial direction ψ ≠ 0 , π / 2 .
