A. Thiaville et al., SURFACE DEFORMATION OF A MAGNETIC SMAPLE AT THE OUTCROP OF A 180-DEGREES MAGNETIC DOMAIN-WALL, Comptes rendus de l'Academie des sciences. Serie 2, Mecanique, physique, chimie, sciences de l'univers, sciences de la terre, 319(1), 1994, pp. 37-40
The magnetostriction induced deformation of the surface of a finite th
ickness sample containing a 180-degrees magnetic domain wall is evalua
ted. The wall may be of the Bloch, Neel, or mixed (Neel outside and Bl
och inside) type. It is assumed that the magnetic structure is fixed i
n order to calculate the displacement field. In particular, deformatio
ns for a Bloch and a Neel wall are found to be of opposite signs.
