Abstract We investigate the magnetization reversal of single-domain magnetic nanoparticle driven by the circularly polarized cosine chirp microwave pulse (CCMP). The numerical findings, based on the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, reveal that the CCMP is by itself capable of driving fast and energy-efficient magnetization reversal. The microwave field amplitude and initial frequency required by a CCMP are much smaller than that of the linear down-chirp microwave pulse. This is achieved as the frequency change of the CCMP closely matches the frequency change of the magnetization precession which leads to an efficient stimulated microwave energy absorption (emission) by (from) the magnetic particle before (after) it crosses over the energy barrier. We further find that the enhancement of easy-plane shape anisotropy significantly reduces the required microwave amplitude and the initial frequency of CCMP. We also find that there is an optimal Gilbert damping for fast magnetization reversal. These findings may provide a pathway to realize the fast and low-cost memory device.

To overcome superparamagnetic limit, microwave assisted magnetic recording (MAMR) is one interesting magnetic recording technology. Therefore, the effect of microwave on magnetization reversal in media should be analyzed. In this work, we propose the MAMR to decrease switching field (coercivity, Hsw) in exchange coupled composite (ECC) media by using the micromagnetic simulation based on the Landau - Lifshitz - Gilbert equation. The Hsw of single layer and ECC media without microwave field is 110.90 and 7.7 kOe, respectively. When the oscillating microwave field is added, Hsw of single layer media with microwave frequency of 2.5 - 40 GHz is lower than 110.90 kOe. Likewise, Hsw of ECC media with microwave frequency of 5 - 16 GHz is lower than 7.7 kOe and has the lowest value of 4.9 kOe at frequency of 10 GHz. The results from this work lead to solve superparamagnetic limit and increase areal density in hard disk drive.
