A micromagnetic solver using the Finite Difference method on a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and its integration with the Object Oriented MicroMagnetic Framework (OOMMF) are presented. Two approaches for computing the magnetostatic field accelerated by the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) are implemented. The first approach, referred to as the tensor approach, is based on the tensor spatial convolution to directly compute the magnetostatic field from magnetic moments. The second approach, referred to as the scalar potential approach, uses differential operator evaluation through finite differences (divergence for magnetic charge and gradient for magnetostatic field) and spatial convolution for magnetic scalar potential. Comparisons of implementation details, speed, memory consumption and accuracy are provided. The GPU implementation of OOMMF shows up to 32x GPU-CPU speed-up.

The Stabilization of bubble magnetic textures in zero magnetic field has garnered significant attention due to its potential application in spintronic devices. Herein, we employed a home-built rotatable magnetic force microscopy (MFM) to observe the evolution of magnetic domains in NiO/Ni/Ti thin films. Magnetic stripe domains decay into isolated magnetic bubbles under an out-of-plane magnetic field at 100 K, and magnetic stripes reappear when the external magnetic field is reduced to zero.

Plane-wave scattering and absorption characteristics of a spherical core composed of an isotropic material, and covered by InSb spherical coating are investigated in the terahertz spectral regime. The InSb coating is subjected to a magnetostatic field; hence it is a gyrotropic, uniaxial dielectric material comprised of two parameters: temperature and magnetostatic field. It is seen that the interplay of these two parameters can modify the various scattering efficiencies, depending on (i) the frequency of the incident plane wave, (ii) the incident plane-wave orientation with respect to the magnetostatic field's direction, and (iii) the identity of the core material.

Here we revisit the electrostatics of material systems comprising of free charges and linear, homogeneous, and isotropic (LHI) dielectrics. We focus on () suggesting that this is the vector field of electrostatics. We show that () is sufficient to conceptually describe all underlying physics and to mathematically accomplish all necessary calculations, beforehand, independently of the vector fields () and () that, if needed, can be easily calculated from ().

Multilayered [Cu(3 nm)/FeNi(100 nm)]/Cu(150 nm)/FeNi(10 nm)/Cu(150 nm)/FeNi(10 nm)/Cu(150 nm)/[Cu(3 nm)/FeNi(100 nm)] structures were obtained by using the magnetron sputtering technique in the external in-plane magnetic field. From these, multilayer magnetoimpedance elements were fabricated in the shape of elongated stripes using the lift-off lithographic process. In order to obtain maximum magnetoimpedance (MI) sensitivity with respect to the external magnetic field, the short side of the rectangular element was oriented along the direction of the technological magnetic field applied during the multilayered structure deposition.

Ion bombardment with 30 keV Ga ions can locally change the magnetic properties of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy ferrimagnetic Tb/Co based multilayers. The induced changes in the effective magnetization create high gradients of magnetic fields in the proximity of the perimeters of the bombarded areas. Superparamagnetic, micrometer-sized beads floating in an aqueous suspension over such a patterned structure respond to the ensuing magnetostatic energy landscape.
