Ferromagnetic resonance

Ferromagnetic Resonance

Ferromagnetism is used to characterize magnetic behavior of a material, such as the strong attraction to a permanent magnet. The origin of this strong magnetism is the presence of a spontaneous magnetization which is produced by a parallel alignment of spins. Instead of a parallel alignment of all the spins, there can be an anti-parallel alignment of unequal spins. This results in a spontaneous...

Thermoelectric detection of ferromagnetic resonance of a nanoscale ferromagnet.

We present thermoelectric measurements of the heat dissipated due to ferromagnetic resonance of a Permalloy strip. A microwave magnetic field, produced by an on-chip coplanar strip waveguide, is used to drive the magnetization precession. The generated heat is detected via Seebeck measurements on a thermocouple connected to the ferromagnet. The observed resonance peak shape is in agreement with...

Longitudinal detection of ferromagnetic resonance using x-ray transmission measurements.

We describe a setup for the x-ray detection of ferromagnetic resonance in the longitudinal geometry using element-specific transmission measurements. Thin magnetic film samples are placed in a static magnetic field collinear with the propagation direction of a polarized soft x-ray beam and driven to ferromagnetic resonance by a continuous wave microwave magnetic field perpendicular to it. The t...

S-band ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy and the detection of magnetofossils.

We report the use of S-band ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectroscopy to compare the anisotropic properties of magnetite particles in chains of cultured intact magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) between 300 and 15 K with those of sediment samples of Holocene age in order to infer the presence of magnetofossils and their preservation in a geological time frame. The spectrum of intact MTB at 300 K exh...
