Abstract

Exchange bias effect of a various layered thin films were studied by FMR measurment. In plane angular dependence of a resonance field distribution which measured by FMR was analysed as a combined effect of an unidirectional anisotropy and an uniaxial anisotropy. Exchange biased NiFe/IrMn, IrMn/NiFe/IrMn, and NiFe/IrMn/CoFe thin films showed larger unidirectional anisotropy field and uniaxial anisotropy field with compared to that of an unbiased NiFe single thin film. In case of NiFe/Cu/IrMn, the film with thick Cu layer exhibited a similar trend to the unbiased NiFe thin film. NiFe/IrMn/CoFe thin film showed two resonance field distribution due to different ferromagnetic layers. In additon to the resonance field, the line width was also analysed with related to exchange bias effect.

강자성 공명 측정을 통하여 다양한 층 구성을 갖는 교환 바이어스 박막들의 교환 결합 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 공명자기장의 각도의존 실험을 통하여 일축방향이방성 자기장과 일축이방성 자기장을 구하여 분석하였다. NiFe 단일 박막과 비교하여 교환 바이어스된 NiFe/IrMn, IrMn/NiFe/IrMn, NiFe/IrMn/CoFe 박막들은 큰 일축방향이방성 자기장을 나타내었으며, 일축이방성 자기장 또한 큰 값을 나타내었다. 그러나 NiFe/Cu/IrMn의 경우, Cu의 두께가 두꺼울 때는 매우 작은 일축방향이방성 자기장을 나타내었으며, NiFe 단일 박막과 비슷한 크기의 일축이방성 자기장을 나타내었다. NiFe/IrMn/CoFe 박막의 경우 NiFe와 CoFe 강자성층들에 의해 두 개의 공명 자기장이 나타났다. 그 외에 공명 자기장의 선폭에 관한 분석이 교환 바이어스 특성과 연관하여 논의되어졌다.
