Using a Kerr microscope, domain observation has been done to measure pinning characteristics of the element. It has been shown that 40% steplike thickness change of the film thickness can realize a wall pinning, and a pinning field of 2.53 Oe is obtained. The pinning field increases with increasing steplike thickness change ratio.}, pages = {08B701.1--08B701.3}, title = {Domain Wall Pinning by Step-Like Thickness Change in Magnetic Thin Film}, volume = {99}, year = {2006}, yomi = {タケザワ, マサアキ} }
