Contrasts of magnetic domain and domain wall images in Lorentz micrographs are reviewed for both films magnetized parallel and perpendicular to the film plane, and typical images are shown.
Various types of stripe domains are noticed in connection with the magnetization change in neighbouring two domains. It is common to the films with perpendicular anisotropy that a domain with parallel inplane magnetization can be devided into many stripe domains in which only the perpendicular components of magnetization change signs.
Frequently takes place the interchange of domain walls and domains with perpendicular component of magnetization, which is characteristic to the domain structure of thin films.
