Figure 4

(a–c) XY cross section views of a Landau DW at different heights [(a) z = 60 nm, (b) z = 30 nm, (c) z = 0 nm] illustrating the 3 internal degrees of freedom the (clockwise) chirality (white arrows), the polarity of the Bloch wall (yellow arrows) and the direction of the Néel caps (magenta arrows) for the bottom (z = 0 nm) and top (z = 60 nm) surfaces. (d) Cross section view along the dashed white line shown in (b). In all images, X, Y and Z stand for the length, width and thickness of the strip, respectively. The red/blue color code gives the amplitude of the magnetisation component along Y.
