Disorder-induced domain wall velocity shift at high fields in perpendicularly magnetized thin films

[EN]Domain wall dynamics in a perpendicularly magnetized system is studied by means of micromagnetic simulations in which disorder is introduced as a dispersion of both the easy-axis orientation and the anisotropy constant over regions reproducing a granular structure of the material. High field dyn...
