Abstract
The easy cone state of magnetization that arises as a result of a competition between the second- and fourth-order perpendicular magnetic anisotropies has the advantage of a non-zero electric-field torque without the application of a bias magnetic field and is thus a potential candidate for purely voltage-driven magnetic storage devices. In this article, the onset of the easy cone state of magnetization is simulated in a ferromagnet film. Subsequently, the switching field and time for voltage-controlled magnetization switching process are studied as a function of the inclination angle of the easy cone state from the film normal in the range of 0°- 45°. The switching field is found to decrease with decreasing anisotropy. The switching time is found to become faster for higher inclination angle of the easy cone state due to an increase in its torque.
