Giant widening of interface magnetic layer in almost compensated iron garnet

Epitaxial Magnetic Garnet Heterostructures

A summary of our recent progress in the growth and characterization of magnetic and magnetooptic garnet heterostructures is presented in this paper. The similarity in crystal chemistry and lattice parameters among the various garnets (yttrium iron garnet, bismuth iron garnet, etc.) is utilized to create artificially layered heterostructures and superlattices. Rare earth (especially Eu) substitu...

Synthesis of Iron Yttrium Garnet Nanoparticles by Reverse Microemulsion Method

Colloidal nanodispersion of Iron Yttrium Garnet has been preparedbymixing the two ternary mixture of Triton X-100 (surfactant), n-heptane and aqueous solution that differing only in the aqueous phase.Ethanolwas added as cosurfactant and mixed them by ultrasound bath. By mixing these twomicroemulsions, Iron Yttrium garnet (Y3 Fe5 O12) nanodispersionwas obtained. Solids were settled by centrifuge...

Magnetic control of Goos-Hänchen shifts in a yttrium-iron-garnet film

We investigate the Goos-Hänchen (GH) shifts reflected and transmitted by a yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) film for both normal and oblique incidence. It is found that the nonreciprocity effect of the MO material does not only result in a nonvanishing reflected shift at normal incidence, but also leads to a slab-thickness-independent term which breaks the symmetry between the reflected and transmitte...
