Controlling energy transfer time between two coupled magnetic vortex-state disks

Abstract

The influence of the in-plane uniaxial anisotropy (IPUA) in the mutual energy transfer time ($\tau$) between two identical coupled nanodisks was studied. Using an analytical dipolar model we obtained the interactions between the disks along x and y directions (the coupling integrals) as a function of the uniaxial anisotropy constant (K$_{\sigma}$) and the distance. We find that the IPUA increases the interaction between the disks allowing shorter energy transfer times. For our range of K$_{\sigma}$ values we get a drop in the values of $\tau$ of up to about 70$\%$. From the lagrangian of the system we obtained the equations of motion and the coupling frequencies of the dynamic system as a function of distance and K$_{\sigma}$. The coupling frequencies were also obtained from micromagnetic simulations. Our results of the simulations are in agreement with the analytical results.
