Browning, UC Davis Reversal Mechanisms in Fe Nanodisks Superposition of AMR (vortex core) and GMR Summary FORC distribution [Co(10nm)/Cu(250nm]5 • Investigated magnetization reversal mechanisms in Co nanodisks embedded in multilayered nanowires by changing the Co aspect ratio. • Captured magnetic and magnetoresistance "fingerprints" of single domain vs. vortex state reversal:in 200 nm nanowires, single domain for Co thickness < 32nm and vortex state for Co thickness > 37 nm.
