摘要
The reversal process of thin FePt/Pt(001) layers with perpendicular magnetization was observed by magnetic imaging techniques. Reversal occurs through domain wall propagation across a strongly disordered rectangular lattice of linear anisotropy defects. Micromagnetic simulations of domain wall pinning allowed deriving an analytical model of the reversal process unto percolation threshold. Quantitative agreement is found between the calculated and experimental fractal dimension of the reversed domain.
