The dynamic response of magnetic domain walls to applied fields in yttrium orthoferrite grown by the flux method was observed by using a light-emitting diode as a stroboscopic light source. The observed relation between strip domain width and time is not a simple exponential function as calculated from a simple relaxation model, but is more complicated, having two different regions of response time. The estimated relation of domain wall velocity with drive field indicates a remarkable nonlinear behaviour, and this is consistent with results observed by the bubble collapse method previously reported by the authors. Two critical velocities, about 4000-5000 cm s−1 and about 150 cm s−1, were confirmed in the present experiment.
