Stability of magnetic configurations in nanorings

Materials Science 2009-11-11 v1

Abstract

The relative stability of the vortex, onion and ferromagnetic phases in nanorings is examined as a function of the ring geometry. Total energy calculations are carried out analytically, based on simple models for each configuration. Results are summarized by phase diagrams, which might be used as a guide to the production of rings with specific magnetic properties.
