Chiral domain wall motion in unit-cell thick perpendicularly magnetized Heusler films prepared by chemical templating

Abstract

Heusler compounds are of great interest for spintronic applications. Here the authors report current driven domain wall motion in unit cell thick perpendicularly magnetized Heusler films with low current densities and show the velocity is dominated by the bulk chiral Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya exchange interaction.
