We investigated the growing in a temperature range among 100 oC and 300 oC. Structural and magneto-crystalline properties were studied by different experimental techniques. Thickness and surface roughness of the films were investigated by atomic force microscopy, while magneto-crystalline properties were investigated by magneto-optical Kerr effect and ferromagnetic resonance. Our results show that as we increase the deposition temperature, the magneto-crystalline anisotropy of the films also increases, following the equation of Avrami. The best temperature value to make a film is 300 oC. As the main result, we built a base of magnetoresistence devices and as an aplication, we present measurements of Fe/Cr/Fe trilayer coupling. In a second work we investigated the temperature dependence of the first three interlayer spacings of Ag(100) surface using low energy electron diffraction. A linear expansion model of crystal surface was used and the values of Debye temperatures of the first two layers and thermal expansion coefficient were determinated. A relaxation of 1% was found for Ag(100) surface and these results are matched with faces (110) and (111) of the silver. iv / Neste trabalho foi desenvolvida a metodologia de deposi??o dos filmes monocristalinos de Fe/MgO (100) via magneto sputtering DC. Foi Investigado o crescimento de filmes na faixa de temperatura entre 100 oC e 300 oC. As propriedades estruturais e magnetocristalinas dos filmes foram estudadas por diferentes t?cnicas experimentais. A espessura e a rugosidade da superf?cie foram investigadas por microscopia de for?a at?mica (AFM). A t?cnica de espectroscopia de fotoel?trons excitados por raios-X (XPS) foi utilizada para determinar a pureza da composi??o dos filmes. E as propriedades magn?ticas foram investigadas por resson?ncia ferromagn?tica (FMR) e Efeito Ker Magneto-?ptico (MOKE). O resultados mostram que o aumento da temperatura de deposi??o gera um aumento da anisotropia magnetocristalina segundo um comportamento regido pela equa??o de Avrami. Como resultado principal, foi constru?da a estrutura base para a fabrica??o de dispositivos magnetoresistivos. E, como aplica??o s?o apresentadas as medidas do acoplamento entre uma tricamada de Fe/Cr/Fe/MgO. Em um segundo trabalho, foi investigado a depend?ncia com a temperatura dos primeiros tr?s espa?amentos entre camadas da Ag (100) via t?cnica de difra??o de el?trons. Utilizando um modelo de expans?o linear da superf?cie do cristal, foi determinada a temperatura de Debye, a varia??o percentual da dist?ncia interplanar e o coeficiente de expans?o t?rmica da superf?cie. A relaxa??o encontrada foi de 1% e os resultados s?o confrontados com as faces (110) e (111) da prata

The samples were deposited by the DC Sputtering on Magnesium Oxide (MgO) substrates, with (100) crystal orientation. For this investigation, experimental magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) magnetometry and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) techniques were employeed. In this case, these techniques allowed us to study the static and dynamical magnetization properties of our tri-layers. The experimental results were interpreted based on the phenomenological model that takes into account the relevant energy terms to the magnetic free energy to describe the system behavior. In the case of the monocrystalline Fe film, we performed an analytical discussion on the magnetization curves and developed a numerical simulation based on the Stoner-Wohlfarth model, that enables the numerical adjustment of the experimental magnetization curves and obtainment of the anisotropy field values. On the other hand, for the tri-layers, we analyzed the existence of bilinear and biquadratic couplings between the magnetizations of adjacent ferromagnetic layers from measurements of magnetization curves. With the FMR fields and line width angular dependencies, information on the anisotropy in three layers was obtained and the effects of different magnetic relaxation mechanisms were evidenced. It was also possible to observe the dependence of the epitaxy of the multilayers with growth and sputtering parameters. Additionally it was developed the technique of AC magnetic susceptibility in order to obtain further information during the investigation of magnetic thin films / Nesta disserta??o investigamos as propriedades magn?ticas de um filme monocristalino de ferro e tricamadas com a composi??o Fe(80?)/Cr(t)/Fe(80?), variando as espessuras da camada met?lica n?o magn?tica separadora (Cr) entre 9? < t < 40?.

Estas t?cnicas permitiram o estudo das propriedades est?ticas e din?micas da magnetiza??o das multicamadas. Os resultados experimentais foram interpretados com base no modelo fenomenol?gico que leva em considera??o os termos mais relevantes da energia livre magn?tica para descrever o comportamento do sistema.

Spin Waves: The Transition from a Thin Film to a Full Magnonic Crystal

Langer, Manuel 31 July 2017 (has links)
The present work addresses in-depth magnetic films with magnonic surface patterning of variable size. Two different kinds of such structures referred to as surface-modulated magnonic crystals were investigated: Ion-irradiated magnonic crystals and structurally etched magnonic crystals. To achieve that, two different experimental approaches were pursued. On the one hand, the magnetic moment at the surface of lithographically patterned permalloy (Ni80Fe20) films was periodically reduced by means of ion irradiation. On the other hand, structural trenches were introduced at the surface of a pre-patterned thin film by sequential ion milling. The goal is the acquisition of a fundamental understanding of the behavior of spin-wave modes in the transition from a continuous magnetic thin film to a full magnonic crystal, i.e. separated periodic magnetic structures. In the framework of this thesis, the spin-wave eigen-modes of such magnonic crystals were mainly investigated spectroscopically by means of ferromagnetic resonance. Thereby, the “Two-magnon scattering perturbation theory” and the “plane-wave method” were employed as the theoretical methodologies to understand the complex dynamics of such systems. The first is a reliable method to calculate the dynamic response of surface-modulated magnonic crystals where the modulation is of a perturbation character, i.e. small compared to the film thickness. The latter is a quasi-analytical approach to calculate the dynamic eigen-modes of magnonic crystals consisting of different components with significantly varying properties. Moreover, numerical methods were employed to get further insight into the spin dynamics of these structures. In such systems, the spin-wave behavior follows the well-known dispersion relation of flat magnetic thin films as long as the surface-modulation is small compared to the film thickness. In this work, it was shown that this circumstance can be exploited for a parameter-free determination of the exchange constant A, which is not experimentally accessible for magnetic thin films in a straightforward manner. However, once the modulation height is of significant magnitude, the dynamics of surface-modulated magnonic crystals become substantially more complex. A straightforward understanding of such kind of system is hampered by the complex interplay of different effects. On the one hand, the internal demagnetizing field reveals an alternating character and depends itself on the modulation height and the field angle. On the other hand, the dynamic eigen-modes are hybridized, i.e., they reveal different characteristics in different regions of the magnonic crystal and, in addition, they couple to each other. Here, the approach is particularly favorable to investigate the spin dynamics of surface-modulated magnonic crystals by systematically altering the modulation height of the same sample. This is mainly due to two reasons. First, the two edge cases, namely the thin film and the full magnonic crystal, are already well understood and, second, other magnetic and structural parameters remain constant. With the help of the measurement results and the simulations, the quasi-analytical theory was validated. Subsequently, the mode profiles were calculated by theory and simulation in order to analyze the mode character in the transition from a thin film to a full magnonic crystal. Two kinds of dynamic eigen-modes were identified, namely hybridized modes and localized modes. For both types, simple formulae were derived describing their characteristic dynamic behavior. Besides, transition rules were found connecting the mode number n of film modes with the mode number m of modes in the full magnonic crystal. In order to correlate the symmetry and magnitude of the demagnetizing field with the spin-wave eigen-modes, the internal fields of a strongly surface-modulated magnonic crystal were reconstructed by electron holography measurements. By reemploying the measurement results for micromagnetic simulations, the dynamics of the whole system could be reproduced. This strategy allowed for a better understanding of the link between the demagnetizing field and the spin-wave mode characteristics. Based on these results, a simplified model for the analytical description of the inplane angular dependence was found. The acquired understanding of such systems led to the elaboration of specific applications, such as the spin-wave channelization. It should be noted that the coupling of uniform to non-uniform spin-wave phenomena, which is an intrinsic property of these structures, holds out the prospect of several applications in the future.

Spin dynamics and transport in magnetic heterostructures

Schneider, Tobias 16 April 2019 (has links)
The direct integration of magnon-spintronic devices in current technologies requires the development of spin-wave sources emitting ultra-short wavelengths and low-loss spin-wave guides. In this work, possible solutions for both of these challenges are provided. The first part of this thesis is dedicated to the nonreciprocal spin-wave emission in magnetic bilayers. Two prototype systems are theoretically investigated and corroborated by experimental results: (i) extended magnetic bilayer films and (ii) micron-sized elliptical magnetic bilayers. The nonreciprocity of the dispersion relation induced by the dynamic dipole-dipole interactions is investigated by means of micromagnetic simulations and an analytic theory. The nonreciprocal frequency shift linearly increases with the film thickness for small wave numbers. The topological emission of short-wavelength spin waves is observed in the micron-sized elliptical magnetic bilayers using scanning transmission X-ray microscopy and theoretically corroborated utilizing micromagnetic simulations. The second part of this thesis theoretically investigates a special spin transport mechanism in ferromagnetic thin films termed spin superfluidity. The main characteristic of this macroscopic state is the power-law dependence of the dissipated spin current in contrast to the exponential damping of spin waves, enabling low-loss long-range transport. The possible existence and the stability of the superfluidic transport in ferromagnetic thin films excited by spin-transfer torque in the presence of the intrinsic dipole-dipole interactions is reported for the first time. To provide indicators to prove the experimental realization of a spin superfluid the dependence on the excitation current is numerically analyzed. Three distinct regimes are obtained for both disabled and enabled dipole-dipole interactions, showing the generality of the investigated system. Both presented effects might open new paths for the technological application of magnonic devices in the future. / Die direkte Integration von magnon-spintronischen Bauteilen in moderne Technologien erfordert die Entwicklung von kurzwelligen Spinwellenquellen und verlustarmer Spinwellenleiter. In dieser Arbeit werden mögliche Lösungen für diese beiden Herausforderungen vorgestellt. Der erste Teil dieser Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der nichtreziproken Spinwellenemission in magnetischen Doppellagen. Zwei Prototypsysteme werden theoretisch untersucht und durch experimentelle Ergebnisse untermauert: (i) ausgedehnte magnetische Doppellagen und (ii) mikrometer-große elliptische Doppellagen. Durch die dynamischen Dipol-Dipol-Wechselwirkungen wird eine Nichtreziprozität der Dispersionsrelation induziert. Diese wird mittels mikromagnetischer Simulationen und einer analytischen Theorie untersucht. Die nichtreziproke Frequenzverschiebung nimmt hierbei bei kleinen Wellenzahlen linear mit der Filmdicke zu. Die topologische Emission von Spinwellen wird in den mikrometer-großen elliptischen Doppellagen unter Verwendung von Röntgentransmissionsmikroskopie beobachtet und theoretisch unter Verwendung mikromagnetischer Simulationen bestätigt. Im zweiten Teil dieser Arbeit wird der spezielle Spintransport in ferromagnetischen dünnen Filmen untersucht, der als Spinsuprafluidität bekannt ist. Das Hauptmerkmal dieses makroskopischen Zustands ist die Abhängigkeit des dissipierten Spinstromes von der Propagationslänge als Potenzgesetz im Gegensatz zur exponentiellen Dämpfung von Spinwellen. Die Existenz und die Stabilität des suprafluiden Transportes in dünnen ferromagnetischen Filmen, angeregt durch einen spinpolarisierten Strom, in Gegenwart der intrinsischen Dipol-Dipol-Wechselwirkungen wird erstmals beschrieben. Um Hinweise für die experimentelle Realisierung der Spinsuprafluidität zu geben, wird die Abhängigkeit des Zustandes vom Anregungsstrom numerisch analysiert. Hierbei ergeben sich drei verschiedene Bereiche für den Fall vernachlässigter als auch aktivierter Dipol-Dipol-Wechselwirkung. Dies zeigt die Allgemeinheit des untersuchten Systems. Die beiden vorgestellten Effekte könnten in Zukunft neue Wege für die technologische Anwendung magnonischer Strukturen eröffnen.

Morphology-Induced Magnetic Phenomena Studied by Broadband Ferromagnetic Resonance

Körner, Michael 05 November 2013 (has links) (PDF)
In the present work, the influence of the morphology of thin ferromagnetic films on their static as well as dynamic magnetic properties was investigated by means of broadband ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). Using an ion beam erosion process the surface of the substrates was periodically modulated (ripples), where the modulation wavelength is determined by the ion energy. In this way a well-controllable roughness profile evolves ranging from a few ten up to several hundreds of nanometers in wavelength. The substrate’s surface profile in turn is repeated by films grown on top offering an easy and fast approach to investigate morphology influences on the magnetic properties. This work aims on modifications of the magnetic anisotropy as well as the FMR linewidth of the magnetic relaxation process. Prior to magnetic investigations the existing FMR setup was extended to measure FMR spectra at a fixed microwave frequency while sweeping the external magnetic field. Furthermore, a software toolbox was developed to perform the data processing and evaluation. Starting with the morphology influence on the magnetic anisotropy 10 nm thin Fe, Co, and Ni81Fe19 (Permalloy ≡ Py) films were deposited on rippled Si substrates. Due to Si displacements during ion erosion and natural oxidation the rippled Si substrates exhibit an amorphous surface causing a polycrystalline material growth. This leads to a suppression of magneto-crystalline anisotropy leaving only morphology-induced anisotropy contributions. Here, a uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (UMA) was observed that aligns its easy axis with the ripple ridges, whereas its strength decays with increasing ripple wavelength for all materials. From thickness-dependent measurements two characteristic regions were determined with competing uniaxial volume and surface anisotropy contributions. Underlined by micromagnetic simulations a dominant volume contribution was found in the thin region accompanied by magnetic moments nearly following the surface corrugation. In the thick region the UMA is controlled by dipolar stray fields at the surface. In contrast to Si, ion eroded MgO keeps its crystal structure offering epitaxial growth of 10 nm thin single-crystalline Fe films. Consequently, a superposition of morphology-induced UMA and magneto-crystalline cubic anisotropy was observed. The direction of the ripple ridges is predetermined by the incident ion beam, which allows to freely orient the UMA’s direction with respect to the cubic anisotropy, offering a possibility for anisotropy engineering. In comparison to the planar reference case rippled magnetic films exhibit lower intrinsic and extrinsic relaxation contributions. For the final part, 30 nm Py was grown on rippled Si covering modulation wavelengths λ ranging from 27 to 432 nm. Using magnetic force microscopy and holography measurements the dipolar stray fields above and inside the magnetic layer were characterized. For λ ≥ 222 nm, the stray fields act as scattering centers for spin waves triggering two-magnon scattering (TMS). This causes an apparent line broadening generating distinct peaks in the frequency-dependent linewidth whose position can be tuned by altering λ. These effects are understood in the framework of a perturbation theory of spin waves in periodically perturbed films recently presented in the literature. Furthermore, the in-plane angular dependence of the linewidth revealed a two-fold symmetry, which is not present for vanishing TMS at small λ. / In Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurde der Einfluss der Morphologie eines dünnen ferromagnetischen Films auf dessen statische und dynamische Eigenschaften mittels breitbandiger ferromag- netischer Resonanz (FMR) untersucht. Durch Ionenstrahl-Erosion wurde die Oberfläche des verwendeten Substrats periodisch moduliert (Ripple), wobei die Wellenlänge der Modulation durch die Ionenenergie bestimmt ist. Dies ermöglicht die kontrollierte Herstellung rauer Oberflächen mit Wellenlängen zwischen wenigen zehn bis zu einigen hundert Nanometern. Werden auf diesen Oberflächen Filme abgeschieden, übernehmen diese die Modulation. Somit ergibt sich eine einfache und schnelle Untersuchungsmöglichkeit der magnetischen Filmeigenschaften in Hinblick auf die Morphologie. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die Untersuchung von Morphologieeinflüssen auf die magnetische Anisotropie sowie FMR-Linienbreite. Im Vorfeld der magnetischer Untersuchungen wurde der bestehende FMR-Aufbau um einen Messmodus erweitert, sodass Messungen bei fester Mikrowellenfrequenz und gleichzeitigem Durchfahren eines externen magnetischen Feldes möglich wurden. Weiterhin wurde ein Softwarepaket für die Datenauswertung entwickelt. Beginnend mit dem Morphologieeinfluss auf die magnetische Anisotropie wurden 10 nm dünne Fe, Co und Ni81Fe19 (Permalloy ≡ Py) Filme auf periodisch moduliertem Si abgeschieden. Durch Versetzungen während der Ionenstrahl-Erosion und Bildung einer natürlichen Oxidschicht bildet sich bei den verwendeten Substraten eine amorphe Oberfläche, was zu polykristallinem Schichtwachstum führt. Dadurch wird die magneto-kristalline Anisotropie unterdrückt und morphologie-induzierte Beiträge bestimmen die Anisotropie. Beobachtet wurde eine induzierte uniaxiale magnetische Anisotropie (UMA), deren leichte Richtung sich entlang der Ripple-Wellenzüge ausrichtet. Mittels schichtdickenabhängigen Messungen wurden zwei charakteristische Regionen mit konkurrierender uniaxialer Volumen- und Oberflächenanisotropie ermittelt. Dabei ist die Volumenkomponente im Bereich dünner Schichten vorherrschend und die magnetischen Momente richten sich entlang der Oberflächenmodulation aus. Für dickere Schichten ist die UMA dahingegen durch dipolare Streufelder bestimmt. Die experimentellen Funde werden in beiden Bereichen durch mikromagnetische Simulationen untermauert. Im Gegensatz zu erodiertem Si behält MgO seine Kristallstruktur, was epitaktisch gewachsene, einkristalline Fe-Schichten von 10 nm Dicke ermöglicht. Folglich wurde eine Überlagerung aus induzierter und kristalliner Anisotropie beobachtet. Dadurch, dass die Richtung der Ripple durch die Richtung des Ionenstrahls während der Erosion vorgegeben wird, lässt sich die UMA frei gegen die kristalline Anisotropie drehen, was wiederum Möglichkeiten zur gezielten Beeinflussung der Anisotropie bietet. Im Hinblick auf die dynamischen magnetischen Eigenschaften führen Ripple zu einer Verringerung der intrinsischen und extrinsischen Relaxationsbeiträge. Für den letzten Teil der Arbeit wurde 30 nm dünnes Py auf Si-Ripple gewachsen, wobei ein Wellenlängenbereich von λ = 27 nm bis 432 nm abgedeckt wurde. Mit Hilfe von magnetischer Kraftmikroskopie und Holographie wurden die dipolaren Streufelder über und in den Filmen untersucht. Ab λ ≥ 222 nm ermöglichen diese dipolaren Felder eine Streuung von Spinwellen, sodass Zwei-Magnonen-Streuung (TMS) auftritt. Dies führt zu einer scheinbaren Linienverbreiterung und äußert sich durch einzelne Peaks in der frequenzabhängigen Linienbreite. Letztere lassen sich in ihrer Frequenzposition durch die Wellenlänge des Substrates beeinflussen und können mittels einer kürzlich in der Literatur veröffentlichten Störungstheorie für Spinwellen in periodisch gestörten Filmen erklärt werden. Weiterhin wurde in der winkelabhängigen Linienbreite eine zweifache Symmetrie beobachtet, welche durch die TMS hervorgerufen wird und folglich nicht bei kleinen Wellenlängen zu beobachten ist.
