Abstract

A graphical technique for finding equilibrium magnetic configurations in exchange coupled multilayer magnetic nanowires is presented. For the case of a two layer wire this technique is used to find two domain wall configurations localized near the interface between the layers. Both configurations are demonstrated to satisfy some important requirements for use in a calculation of the rate of magnetization reversal due to thermal activation. It is described how the graphical technique can be used for other types of multilayer nanowires.
