Abstract

Solving the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation numerically, we investigate the effect of the potential landscape on the attempt frequency of magnetization in nanomagnets with the thin-film geometry. Numerical estimates of the attempt frequency are analyzed in comparison with theoretical predictions from the Fokker-Planck equation for the Néel-Brown model. It is found that for a nanomagnet with the thin-film geometry, theoretically predicted values for the universal case are in excellent agreement with numerical estimates.
