Magnetization Dynamics Modeling in a Like Iron-Silicon Thin Film by the Micromagnetic Approach

Iron-silicon thin films used as a single layer or in sandwich structures are currently regarded as a promising candidate in high magnetic sensors. A detailed understanding of magnetization dynamics in such thin films is of great interest. In this work, we only focused on modeling the magnetization reversal. Numerical solution to the nonlinear Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation can be used to conduct the study. With the help of our developed Matlab code, the simulations were carried out. External field strength, damping parameter and temperature all have an impact on the speed of the magnetization reversal. The validation of our computations is achieved via a separate simulation. It relates to the solution of the standard problem proposed by the micromagnetic Modeling Activity G roup (μMAG ). The results are in agreement with the ones presented in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) website.
