Element-resolved x-ray ferrimagnetic and ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report on the measurement of element-specific magnetic resonance spectra at gigahertz frequencies using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). We investigate the ferrimagnetic precession of Gd and Fe ions in Gd-substituted Yttrium Iron Garnet, showing that the resonant field and linewidth of Gd precisely coincide with Fe up to the nonlinear regime of parametric excitations. The opposite sign of the Gd x-ray magnetic resonance signal with respect to Fe is consistent with dynamic antiferromagnetic alignment of the two ionic species. Further, we investigate a bilayer metal film, Ni80Fe20(5 nm)/Ni(50 nm), where the coupled resonance modes of Ni and Ni80Fe20 are separately resolved, revealing shifts in the resonance fields of individual layers but no mutual driving effects. Energy-dependent dynamic XMCD measurements are introduced, combining x-ray absorption and magnetic resonance spectroscopies.

Element Specific Versus Integral Structural and Magnetic Properties of Co:ZnO and Gd:GaN Probed with Hard X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy
Dilute magnetic semiconductors (DMS) are envisioned as sources of spin-polarized carriers for future semiconductor devices which simultaneously utilize spin and charge of the carriers. The hope of discovering a DMS with ferromagnetic order up to room temperature still motivates research on suitable DMS materials. Two candidate wide-band gap DMS are Gd:GaN and Co:ZnO. We have used hard X-ray abs...
متن کاملElectronic and Magnetic Properties of Mn3O4/Fe3O4 Superlattices
Antiparallel interlayer magnetic coupling between layers of Fe3O4 and Mn3O4 , both ferromagnetic, was reported in a recent study. The interlayer magnetic coupling may be affected by the magnetic property at the interface. In order to understand the interplay between the electronic configuration, the atomic structure and the magnetic property at the interface, we have performed transition metal ...
