For the 50nm thick Py dots we observe direct nucleation of the single vortex state from the saturated state, while the dots with thickness equal or below 25 nm reveal formation of intermediate metastable double vortex state before entering into the single vortex ground state at small negative fields. This scenario is confirmed by micromagnetic simulations and variable field magnetic force microscopy imaging. Our simulations investigate stability of the double vortex metastable state as a function of temperature and external microwave pulses. Magnetic force microscopy was found to be a invasive imaging technique to study this kind of samples. For 20nm thick Py dots only the single vortex state is observed with commercial tips, meanwhile home made tips with lower magnetic moment were found to destroy the double vortex state during imaging process.","PeriodicalId":375707,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128235118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, this is the first RFID tag using the meander line monopole antenna. The experiment shows that the bottle packaged wine product labeled by the tag can be detected at about 1.5m distance, which is much longer than previously reported on wine product detection.","PeriodicalId":375707,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122023215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fields in the various regions are written as infinite series of products of radial and angular prolate spheroidal functions, and the modal expansion coefficients are determined exactly by imposing the boundary conditions, thus yielding a new canonical solution to a radiation problem.

In this paper, the plasmon resonance of two stacked gold nanodisks separated by a tiny 2 nm gap is studied in time-domain simulations, offering the possibility of transient and broadband analysis. Moreover, time-domain simulations are amenable to extensions towards nonlinear models. For efficient simulations, the extremely small gap in between the nanodisks, as well as potential fabrication imperfections, are advantageously modeled with an unstructured mesh. This paper presents 3D simulations of the nanodisk plasmon problem using the finite-volume time-domain method in a tetrahedral mesh.","PeriodicalId":375707,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Electromagnetics in Advanced Applications","volume":"124 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129166944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
