Abstract
We report on the impact of the magnetic domain stripe configuration on the critical velocity of vortices in superconducting/ferromagnetic bilayers. Using a 23 nm thick Mo2N film, covered by a 48 nm FePt layer with tunable nanosized striped domains, we demonstrate that flux instability at low magnetic fields depends on the orientation of the stripes. When the stripes are perpendicular to the applied current and act as vortex guides, the velocity values reach 5 km/s, duplicating those found when configured parallel to the current, creating intricate vortex trajectories. Our results indicate that vortex critical velocities can be tuned by configuring different domain structures, providing a platform to understand vortex dynamics in superconducting microstrips.
