Effect of electric-field modulation of magnetic parameters on domain structure in MgO/CoFeB

We observe magnetic domain structures of MgO/CoFeB with a perpendicular magnetic easy axis under an electric field. The domain structure shows a maze pattern with electric-field dependent isotropic period. The analysis of the period indicates a major role of the electric-field modulation of interfac...

Zusammenfassung:We observe magnetic domain structures of MgO/CoFeB with a perpendicular magnetic easy axis under an electric field. The domain structure shows a maze pattern with electric-field dependent isotropic period. The analysis of the period indicates a major role of the electric-field modulation of interfacial magnetic anisotropy for the observation and possible contribution from electric-field modulation of the exchange stiffness constant.
