  • Abstract
    Patterned submicron magnetic thin films of various geometries have been systematically studied. We have observed end domain states in rectangular elements, which is in excellent agreement with micromagnetic simulation results. Significant deviation from single domain behavior has been found in low aspect ratio elements. We will show that this deviation is attributed to behavior of the end domains
