Abstract :
This study aims to investigate the nucleation and propagation of magnetic solitons by modifying the exchange coupling-magnetic anisotropy strength ratio of both the edge layers of a synthetic ferrimagnetic superlattice. The magnetic configurations of the superlattice during a hysteresis loop are investigated using macrospin simulation.
