The authors have investigated the current-induced magnetic domain wall (DW) motion in perpendicularly magnetized Co/Ni nanowire with structural inversion asymmetry (SIA). In this system, DW motion to the direction of electric current flow, not electron flow, and high DW velocity up to 110 m/s were confirmed, which have never been observed in Co/Ni systems without SIA. In addition, we found that the DW velocity showed a strong dependence on the perpendicular magnetic field in the range of +/- 100 Oe. These results suggest that DW in the Co/Ni nanowire with SIA moves in the steady mode, not in the precessional mode. (C) 2013 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
