Irreversible magnetization reversal In some Co . . based ailoy thin fUms
نویسنده
چکیده
Irreversible magnetization reversal occurs either by coherent or incoherent spin rotation or by wall displacement. In electrodeposited Co-W, Co-Fe, and CooP 300--500-A. films, vibrating sample magnetometer hysteresis loop analyses indicate that magnetization reversal takes place by wall displacement. The formation and movement of domain walls has been put in evidence by Lorentz electron microscopy.

Current-induced magnetization reversal in high magnetic fields in Co/Cu/Co nanopillars.
Current-induced magnetization dynamics in Co/Cu/Co trilayer nanopillars (approximately 100 nm in diameter) have been studied experimentally at low temperatures for large applied fields perpendicular to the layers. At 4.2 K an abrupt and hysteretic increase in resistance is observed at high current densities for one polarity of the current, comparable to the giant magnetoresistance effect observ...
متن کاملRole of interface coupling inhomogeneity in domain evolution in exchange bias
Models of exchange-bias in thin films have been able to describe various aspects of this technologically relevant effect. Through appropriate choices of free parameters the modelled hysteresis loops adequately match experiment, and typical domain structures can be simulated. However, the use of these parameters, notably the coupling strength between the systems' ferromagnetic (F) and antiferrom...
متن کاملReversal processes and domain wall pinning in polycrystalline Co-nanowires
The magnetization reversal process of single Co nanowires is investigated experimentally by magnetoresistance measurements at low temperatures. The results are compared to magnetic force micrographs of the remanent domain configuration. The theoretical expectation for the reversal process is obtained from Monte Carlo simulations. We find that both the width and the thickness of the wires as wel...
متن کاملEffect of Cobalt Concentration on Structural and Magnetic Properties of Co-Fe Thin Films
Co-Fe films were electrodeposited on Cu substrate from electrolytes with different Co concentration levels. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to investigate the films crystal structures. The results indicate that if the Co concentration is less that the Fe concentration, the cubic structure appears in the films, while the hexagonal structure dominates when the C...
متن کاملEvolution of magnetization reversal mechanism in Fe-Cr alloy films
A large thin film sample of FexCr1−x alloy with a composition gradient x=0.38−0.52 has been prepared by co-sputtering to investigate magnetic anisotropy and magnetization effects on reversal mechanisms. The single-phased Fe-Cr films have a bcc structure with 110 preferred orientation. Since the magnetization decreases as the Fe content is decreased and the uniaxial anisotropy energy keeps at al...
