We demonstrate piezostrain-induced frequency pulling in stacked double-vortex structures, magnetostatically coupled through the nonmagnetic spacer. We study the effect of the Cu spacer thickness on the strain-induced gyrotropic frequency shift in double-vortex structures comprising of magnetostrictive CoFeB and nonmagnetostricitve Py layers. For the two stacked vortices with different eigen-frequencies, the strain-induced magnetoelastic anisotropy leads to the downshift of the gyration frequency of the magnetostricitve vortex. We show that for increased dipolar coupling between the layers (i.e. decreased spacer thickness), a strain-induced frequency pulling regime is obtained, where the resonance frequency of the nonmagnetostrictive Py vortex is upshifted towards the gyration resonance of the magnetostrictive CoFeB vortex. This result offers an additional degree of freedom for the manipulation of the dynamical regimes and synchronization conditions in spintronic oscillators, controlled by voltage and tunable by strain
