Abstract :
This work investigates connected and disconnected arrays of circular or square permalloy rings with different spacing to explore magnetization reversal and magnetoresistance mechanisms in dependence on a magnetic field direction. Results show that numerical simulations reproduce well the experimental behaviour.
