Disorder-induced microscopic magnetic memory.

چکیده
Using coherent x-ray speckle metrology, we have measured the influence of disorder on major loop return point memory (RPM) and complementary point memory (CPM) for a series of perpendicular anisotropy Co/Pt multilayer films. In the low disorder limit, the domain structures show no memory with field cycling--no RPM and no CPM. With increasing disorder, we observe the onset and the saturation of both the RPM and the CPM. These results provide the first direct ensemble-sensitive experimental study of the effects of varying disorder on microscopic magnetic memory and are compared against the predictions of existing theories.

Experimental Study on the Magnetomechanical Characteristics of Ni-Mn-Ga Ferromagnetic Shape Memory Alloy Single Crystals
Magnetic shape memory properties of Ni-Mn-Ga single crystals were characterized by measurement of stress-induced martensite reorientation under constant magnetic fields. Also magnetic field-induced strain as a function of the applied magnetic field under different constant compressive stress levels has been investigated. All the experiments were performed at room temperature in which the sample...
متن کاملP 26: The Protective Effect of Nano-Hesperetin on Memory Disorder Induced by Streptozotocinin Male Rat in Alzheimer Models
Introduction: Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of streptozotocin (STZ) to rodents has been reported as an appropriate model for sporadic dementia of Alzheimer's type (SDAT), characterized by a progressive impairment of memory. However, very little or nothing is known about non-cognitive behavioral effects in the STZ model. This study was carried out in order to show the protective eff...
متن کاملQuasistatic x-ray speckle metrology of microscopic magnetic return-point memory.
We have used coherent, resonant, x-ray magnetic speckle patterns to measure the statistical evolution of the microscopic magnetic domains in perpendicular magnetic films as a function of the applied magnetic field. Our work constitutes the first direct, ensemble-averaged study of microscopic magnetic return-point memory, and demonstrates the profound impact of interfacial roughness on this phen...
