수직자기이방성을 갖는 [Co/Pt]$\times$5 다층박막을 상온에서 이온빔 증착(ion beam deposition)법으로 제작하여 자기적 및 열적 특성을 연구하였다. 수직자기이방성 특성은 비정상 홀(Hall)-전압법으로 측정하였으며, 표면광 Kerr 효과로 확인하였다. $[Co(10{\AA}/Pt(12.5{\AA})]{\times}5$) 다층박막에서 수직자성 보자력은 400 Oe이었고 수평자성은 매우 큰 곤란축(hard-axis) 특성을 유지하였다. 진공 열처리 시 1 kOe의 균일한 자기장이 박막면 수평(시료 A)과 수직(시료 B)이 되도록 각각 인가함에 따라 열적안정성을 관찰하였다. 시료 A의 수직자성의 보자력이이 $300^{\circ}C$에서 1 KOe로 유지되어 시료 B의 열적안정성 보다 훨씬 우수하였다.

In order to investigate the origin of an increase in the coercivity with the Ta addition to Co-Cr films, the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of Co-Cr film and CoCrTa film was measured by a torque magnetometer and VSM. In Co-Cr binary alloy film, the uniaxial anisotropy increased with increasing Cr content. The perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of $Co_{81.7}Cr_{16.7}Ta_{1.6}$ film was larger than that of $Co_{81}Cr_{19}$ film, both of which were deposited at the same substrate temperature of $100^{\circ}C$. The change in the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy with annealing was studied to understand the Ta addition effect. The amount of decrease in perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of the CoCrTa film by the annealing was larger than that of Co-Cr film. And the perpendicular magnetic anisotripies of Co-Cr film and CoCrTa film after annealing were almost the same. The cause of this was interpretated as the enhanced segregation of solute atoms in the Ta added thin film in the as-deposited state. The enhanced segregation of solute atoms increases the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of the film, and causes the increase of perpendicular coercivity of the film.

Magnetic properties of YIG films grown by solid phase epitaxy (SPE) was measured as a function of temperature with focus on magneto-crystalline and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy was not induced in the SPE YIG films annealed at low temperature by relaxing residual stress through formation of dislocation. On the contrary the films annealed at high temperature showed perpendicular magnetic anisotropy which shows very low density of dislocation. Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy field decreased linearly up to a high temperature of $230^{\circ}C$ above which magneto-crystalline anisotropy disappeared. Coercivity also decreased linearly with temperature up 세 $230^{\circ}C$. Magneto-crystalline anisotropy of perpendicular anisotropy induced epitaxial (111) YIG films can be measured using $H_k=4K_1/3M_s$. Temperature behavior of initial susceptibility can be successfully explained by Hopkinson effects. Curie temperature of YIG films grown on GGG substrate with high paramagnetic susceptibility can be easily measured using the results.

Artificial superlattices of Co/Pd were prepared by RF magnetron sputtering Multilayered structure and compositional modulation were analyzed with a side angle x-ray diffractometer. It has been found that expansion of Co lattice occured in this artificial superlattice due to the lattice mismatch between Co and Pd. Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy could be observed when the Co layer thickness became less than 8${\AA}$ and maximum coercivity of 2350 Oe could be obtained in [Co(2.5 ${\AA}$)/Pd(9.3 ${\AA})]_{50}$/Pd$(200\;{\AA})$ with a perfect squareness of magnetic hysteresis loop. Characteristic of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in Co/Pd superlattices could be related to the expansion of Co lattice caused by Pd layer and it turned out that as the thickness of Pd layer increased, perpendicular magnetic anisotropy increased. The interface anisotropy energy and volume anisotropy energy were calculated to be 0.29 ergs/$cm^2$ and -$6.9{\times}10^6$ ergs/$cm^3$ respectively, which are consistent with the values reported elsewhere.

$200{\AA}$ thick Co/Pd multilayered thin films were fabricated by sputtering. Two thicknesses of cobalt sublayer, $2{\AA}$ and $4{\AA}$ were chosen and the effects of sputtering pressure on the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were investigated. It has been found that the optimum pressure for maximum perpendicular magnetic anisotropy(PMA) existed and the pressure for maximum PMA was lower for the multilayer with $2{\AA}$ cobalt layer than that with $4{\AA}$ cobalt thickness. As the sputtering gas presssure increased, domain wall motion with magnetization became difficult and the predominant mode of magnetization reversal changed from domain wall motion to magnetic moment rotation. It turned out that the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy was higher in case of $2{\AA}$ cobalt thickness than $4{\AA}$ cobait thickness.

The out-of-plane and in-plane angular dependence of ferromagnetic resonance field was measured in NiFe thin films fabricated by magnetron sputtering. The effective magnetization was obtained from the out-of-plane angular dependence of ferromagnetic resonance field, which was well agreed with calculated one. The decrease of effective magnetization with NiFe thickness was due to the surface anisotropy constant of $K_s=-0.23\;erg/cm^2$. The in-plane uniaxial anisotropy fields were obtained from the in-plane angular dependence of ferromagnetic resonance field. The easy axis of in-plane uniaxial anisotropy field was rotated to the reverse direction of applied magnetic field during sample fabrication, which was explained by the antiferromagnetic NiFeO layer at sample surface.

The magnetic and magneto-optical properties of the Tb/Co multilayers as a function of the layer thickness and the ratio of Tb/Co thicknesses were studied. When the thickness of Tb layer was $12{\AA}$, the maximum perpendicular anisotropy energy and the maximum thickness ratio which displays the perpendicular anisotropy were obtained. This result indicated that the Tb-Tb and Co-Co pairs as well as the Tb-Co pairs contribute to the perpendicular anisotropy. The Kerr rotation angle, $({\theta}_k)$ was proportional to the perpendicular anisotropy energy and was inversely proportional to the average spin dispersion angle, $(\alpha)$. The maximum $({\theta}_k)$ of $0.28^{\circ}$ was obtained in the film of $12{\AA}$ Tb and the thickness ratio of 1.55. The abnormal hysteresis loops were appeared during the aging treatment because the coercivity difference between the Co layer and the Tb layer was increased by the preferential oxidation of Tb.

We investigate the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in $TiO_2$/Co/Pd on GaAs(100), MgO(100), MgO(111), Si(100), and glass substrates. We find that the roughness of $TiO_2$ depends on the $O_2$ partial pressure in the magnetron sputtering process. The perpendicular magnetic anisotropies are found in all substrates with $TiO_2$ seed layer, and the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of Co/Pd system is insensitive on the type of the substrate when the thickness of $TiO_2$ seed layer is thicker than 5 nm. However, MgO(111) substrate promotes $TiO_2$ rutile (111) structure, and it causes largest perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in $TiO_2$/Co/Pd(111) structures.
