Local Control of Vortex Core Reversal in a Magnetic Hybrid System

Scientists from the Laboratory for Mesoscopic Systems, together with researchers from the Universities of Manchester and Exeter, have discovered a new vortex core reversal mechanism that only occurs in magnetic hybrid systems. This new mechanism provides a way to set the vortex core orientation at will and therefore control magnetisation at the nanoscale.
