Abstract
A non-volatile memory bit-cell for solid-state data storage is proposed. The core of the cell is an elongated magnetic dot, accommodating two magnetic vortices and a magnetic flower at remanence. The flower is switched between two stable positions, geometrically defined, by an electrical current flowing perpendicular to the dot plane. Switching currents as small as ~ 10 μA are demonstrated by micromagnetic simulations.
