We investigate the inversion process of magnetic domain walls (DWs) propagating through synthetic noncollinear magnetic textures, whereby an up/down DW can be transformed into a down/up DW and vice versa. We exploit the lateral coupling…

We show that spin transfer torque from direct spin-polarized current applied parallel to a magnetic domain wall (DW) induces DW motion in a direction independent of the current polarity. This unidirectional response of the DW to spin torque…

Conductive domain walls (CDWs) in the uniaxial ferroelectric lithium niobate (LiNbO$_3$, LN) have attracted a lot of interest as potential elements in 2D nanoelectronics, due to their orders-of-magnitude larger electronic AC and DC…

A domain wall in a ferromagnetic one-dimensional nanowire experiences current induced motion due to its coupling with the conduction electrons. When the current is not sufficient to drive the domain wall through the wire, or it is confined…

The current-induced motion of a domain wall in a semicircle nanowire with applied Zeeman field is investigated. Starting from a micromagnetic model we derive an analytical solution which characterizes the domain-wall motion as a harmonic…
