We report on the observation of stochastic resonance phenomenon of a single domain wall in a ferromagnetic stripe with two pinning sites. Under a weak oscillating field, the wall performs irregular transitions between both constrictions in the presence of thermal fluctuations. Ours results indicate that synchronized wall transitions with the driving field can be achieved at the optimal level of noise. The stochastic resonance is quantified by computing the output signal power as a function of temperature. The analysis points out that this system could be used to design well-controlled amplification devices, which could find application as nanodetectors.

Abstract
We report on the observation of stochastic resonance phenomenon of a single domain wall in a ferromagnetic stripe with two pinning sites. Under a weak oscillating field, the wall performs irregular transitions between both constrictions in the presence of thermal fluctuations. Ours results indicate that synchronized wall transitions with the driving field can be achieved at the optimal level of noise. The stochastic resonance is quantified by computing the output signal power as a function of temperature. The analysis points out that this system could be used to design well-controlled amplification devices, which could find application as nanodetectors.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
