  The effect of the Dzyaloshinskii Moriya interaction on the vortex in magnetic
microdisk was investigated by micro magnetic simulation based on the Landau
Lifshitz Gilbert equation. Our results show that the DM interaction modifies
the size of the vortex core, and also induces an out of plane magnetization
component at the edge and inside the disk. The DM interaction can destabilizes
one vortex handedness, generate a bias field to the vortex core and couple the
vortex polarity and chirality. This DM-interaction-induced coupling can
therefore provide a new way to control vortex polarity and chirality.
