摘要
Magnetic rings in a square shape are studied by magnetic force microscopy with in situ in plane magnetic fields. Well defined domain structures are accessible by changing the orientation of the magnetic field. Magnetic domain wall can easily be trapped at corners. The domain patterns can be controlled by the magnetic field strength and field direction. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
