Sumario:Ultrafast magnetization switching through the single domain wall (DW) propagation has been reported in amorphous micrometric and submicrometric wires. However the performance of prospective devices utilizing DW propagation is determined by the degree to which DW propagation can be controlled. In this article, we propose a novel method for effectively controlling the single DW propagation in a specially designed array consisting of two magnetic microwires by the stray field from magnetically softer microwires. We have experimentally demonstrated that the DW velocity of magnetically harder Fe-rich microwire in such a linear array is affected by the stray field of magnetically softer Co-rich microwire. Additionally, the domain wall can be trapped in the Fe-rich microwire by the stray field produced by the Co-rich microwire in such a linear array. The observed effect of magnetostatic interaction depends on the position of the Co-rich microwire in such a linear array. Controllable domain wall propagation observed in such a linear array can be a useful tool for simple and more flexible ways of controllable trapping and braking of single DWs in Fe-rich microwires showing spontaneous magnetic bistability.
