Improved Sixtus―Tonks method for sensing the domain wall propagation direction

Abstract We present here the improved method for sensing the domain wall propagation direction in the Sixtus–Tonks-based experiments. The new method allows us to recognize not only the direction of the domain wall propagation but also the domain wall nucleation in between the sensing coil or multiple nucleation of two domain wall at both ends of studied wire.
