Micromagnetic simulation of magnetic reversal processes in exchange biased thin film geometries — •Lukas Paetzold, Sapida Akhundzada, Christian Janzen, and Arno Ehresmann — Institute of Physics and Center for Interdisciplinary Nanostructure Science and Technology (CINSaT), University of Kassel, Heinrich-Plett-Strasse 40, 34132 Kassel, Germany

As first observed by Meiklejohn and Bean [1] and described as a unidirectional anisotropy, the exchange bias is a well-known interface effect between antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic thin films. Initiated by field cooling [1], sputter deposition [2], or light-ion bombardment [3] the effect appears as a shift of the hysteresis loop and increased coercive fields [4]. Micromagnetic simulations [5,6] are presented for investigating the magnetic reversal processes in exchange biased thin film systems with a polycrystalline uncompensated antiferromagnetic layer. Different geometries like stripes, squares and discs in the micrometer range are simulated and the influence of modified magnetic parameters in the edges is investigated.
