Abstract
An artificial spin ice consisting of numerous ferromagnets has attracted attention because of its applicability to practical devices. The ferromagnets interact through their stray magnetic field and show various functionality. The ferromagnetic element in the spin ice was recently made in elliptical-shape or stadium-shape. The former has a narrow edge, expecting to generate a large stray magnetic field. The latter has a large volume and is also expected to generate a large stray magnetic field. Here, we estimate the stray magnetic field by numerically integrating the solution of the Poisson equation. When magnetization is parallel to an easy axis, the elliptical-shaped ferromagnet generates a larger stray magnetic field than the stadium-shaped ferromagnet. The stray magnetic fields from both ferromagnets for arbitrary magnetization directions are also investigated.
