摘要

We report the fabrication and characterization of ferromagnetic helicoid nanotubes with a tunable surface curvature and chirality. Through combining focused electron beam induced deposition and magnetron sputtering we realize these complex curvilinear magnetic architectures. Electron holography reveals two distinct states: a single domain remanent state, with a magnetic chirality governed by the geometric chirality, and a vortex-anti-vortex domain wall, preferentially forming at areas of lower curvature. Micromagnetic simulations reveal how the geometry, specifically pitch and local surface curvature, affects the stability and formation of magnetic domain walls. Furthermore, we show that the interplay between magnetic and geometric chirality has a strong impact on domain wall motion, whereby a right-handed geometric chirality leads to faster domain wall motion and a left-handed geometry hinders domain wall transport. The results shown here highlight the potential of 3D magnetic architectures in spintronic devices and offer insights into how geometry and curvature affect the magnetization, the distribution of magnetic solitons and the motion of domain walls.
