abstract = {X-ray photoemission electron microscopy (XPEEM) and
magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) microscopy have been
performed on a metal-insulator multilayer of
[Co80Fe20(t=1.8nm)/Al2O3(3nm)]9 to image 360∘ domain walls
(DWs) along easy and hard axes, respectively. Their creation
and annihilation can be directly visualized under
application of a magnetic field. XPEEM experiments and
micromagnetic simulations show that 360∘ DWs occur through
the merger of 180∘ DWs of opposite chiralities along the
easy axis. They are stable even under application of large
magnetic fields. Formation of 360∘ DWs observed along the
hard axis is attributed to symmetry breaking of the coherent
spin rotation. Their formation in metal-insulator
multilayers is explained as being due to the presence of an
orientational dispersion of anisotropy axes in the film
grains that is comparable to an overall uniaxial anisotropy
term. Our results are confirmed numerically using
micromagnetic simulations.},
