Ultrathin Metal Films
Author: Matthias Wuttig
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540583592
Category : Technology & Engineering

Pages : 400
Book Description
This research monograph discusses the close correlation between the magnetic and structural properties of thin films in the context of numerous examples of epitaxial metal films, while emphasis is laid on the stabilization of novel structures compared to the bulk material. Further options, possibilities, and limits for applications are given. Techniques for the characterization of thin films are addressed as well.

Magnetic Characterization of (001) and (111) Ni Films Epitaxially Grown on MgO.

Pages : 6
Book Description
One interesting application of epitaxial magnetic thin films is to use them as one of the electrodes in a spin-dependent tunneling junction in order to use the magnetocrystalline anisotropy to define the required two states of the magnetization. (1) In our preliminary work we prepared epitaxial magnetic films on copper buffer layers grown on silicon substrates. (2) The single crystalline quality of the films was particularly evident in the magnetization hysteresis loops showing a sharp reversal at fairly high fields (120 Oe) when the samples were magnetized along the crystallographic easy axis. One technological disadvantage in this type of samples is the chemical interaction between the metallic layers and the silicon substrate. In order to explore the possibility of epitaxial magnetic films on less reactive substrates we studied the growth on MgO substrates. We have shown that it is possible to obtain epitaxial (001) and (111) Ni films grown on MgO substrates. 3 In particular we observed that the crystalline quality of the films improved considerably after 10 run of film growth. We will now present our studies on the magnetic properties of these films particularly the azimuthal dependence of the magnetization reversal using MOKRE correlating our finding with the structural characterization obtained with RHEED, STM and XRD.

Correlations Between Micromagnetic, Microstructural and Microchemical Properties in Ultrathin Epitaxial Magnetic Structures

Pages : 132
Book Description
The proposed goal of this project is to obtain quantitative measurements of the microstructural, microchemical and micromagnetic properties of surfaces and interfaces of ultrathin films composed of magnetic materials deposited on non-magnetic, antiferromagnetic (metal) and insulating substrates. Surface microanalytic methods based on a unique ultrahigh-vacuum scanning transmission electron microscope/scanning electron microscope (UHV-STEM/SEM) equipped with in-situ thin film preparation and characterization tools are being used. Magnetic characterization is performed in-situ using the surface magneto-optical Kerr effect (SMOKE). Additional magnetic microstructure measurements are being conducted in a novel STEM based electron holography system where absolutely calibrated nanometer resolution magnetometry is possible. The measurements are designed to clarify the relationship between observed real-space micro-structure of interfaces, ultrathin magnetic films and superlattices with magnetic properties, such as surface anisotropy. The dependence of magnetic properties on film morphology, which may be a function of the deposition parameters during the initial stages of growth, and on structural properties such as strain and interface roughness is being studied. We are exploring the electron beam modification of CaF2 and CoF2, both as an electron beam resist and as a damagable material for preferential nucleation, as a means of defining one and two dimensional nanometer sized epitaxial magnetic devices. Here, we report on our progress in year 2 of this 3 year project. (AN).
