Abstract
We experimentally demonstrate low-power-consumption vortex-core switching in magnetic nanodisks using tailored rotating magnetic fields that are produced with orthogonal and unipolar Gaussian-pulse currents. Optimal width of the orthogonal pulses and their time delay are found to be determined only by the angular eigenfrequency {\omega}_D for a given vortex-state disk of its polarization p, such that {\sigma} = 1/{\omega}_D and {\Delta}t = {\pi}p/2{\omega}_D, as studied from analytical and micromagnetic numerical calculations. The estimated optimal pulse parameters are in good agreements with the experimentally found results. This work provides a foundation for energy-efficient information recording in vortex-core cross-point architecture.
