정육면체 전이금속 산화물 FeO, MnO의 자기적 상호작용을 제1원리의 범밀도함수법을 이용하여 계산하였다. 그 결과, 모두 초교환작용으로 인해 반강자성적 상호작용이 가장 낮은 에너지를 가지고 있었다. 자기이방성은 반강자성 스핀 배열의 FeO 클러스터에서만 발견되었다. 그 원인은 <111> 방향으로 각운동량을 가지는 3d down-spin 전자의 스핀-궤도 결합에 기인하였다.

The low energy excitations of spin waves (SWR) in thin films can be used for determination of the surface anisotropy constant and the nonhomogeneities of magnetization in the close-to-surface layer. The dispersion relation in SWR is sensitive on the geometry of experiment. We report on temperature dependence of surface magnetic anisotropy energy constant in magnetic semiconductor thin films of$ CdCr_{2-2x}In_{2x}Se_4$ at spin glass state. Samples were deposited by rf sputtering technique on Corning glass substrate in controlled temperature conditions. Coexistence of the infinite ferromagnetic network (IFN) and finite spin slusters (FSC) in spin glass state (SG) is know phenomena. Some behavior typical for long range magnetic ordering is expected in samples at SG state. The spin wave resonance experiment (microwave spectrometer at X-band) with excited surface modes was applied to describe the energy state of surface spins. We determined the surface magnetic anisotropy energy constant versus temperature using the surface inhomogeneities model of magnetic thin films. It was found that two components contribute to the surface magnetic anisotropy energy. One originates from the exchange interaction term due to the lack of translation symmetry for surface spin as well as from the originates from the exchange interaction term due to the lack of translation symmetry for surface spin as well as from the stray field of the surface roughness. The second one comes from the demagnetizing field of close-to surface layer with grad M. Both term linearly decrease when temperature is increased from 5 to 123 K, but dominant contribution is from the first component.

고상에피택시방법으로 성장한 YIG 박막의 온도에 따른 자기특성의 변화를 결정이방성과 수직이방성을 중심으로 측정하였다. 고상에피택시법의 열처리 온도가 낮을 경우 전위가 발생하여 응력을 해소함으로써 수직이방성이 유도되지 않았으나 높은 온도에서 열처리된 박막에는 우수한 에피택시성장으로 잔류응력이 축적되어 수직이방성이 유도되었다. 수직이방성자장은 기판과 박막의 열팽창계수의 차이로 결정자기이방성이 없어지는 온도까지 선형으로 감소하였고, 보자력도 온도가 증가하면 감소하였다. YIG(111) 에피택시박막에 수직이방성이 유도되었을 경우 결정이방성상수 $K_1$을 $H_k=4K_1/3M_s$로부터 결정할 수 있었다. 온도에 따른 초자화율의 거동은 Hopkinson 효과로 잘 설명되어졌으며 측정결과를 이용하명 상자성 자화율이 큰 기판위에 성장한 박막의 큐리온도를 쉽게 측정할 수 있었다.

It is necessary to develop soft magnetic layer with high saturation magnetization 4 $\pi{M}_s$ and in-plane magnetic anisotropy field Hk for soft magnetic underlayer of perpendicular magnetic recording media with high signal to noise ratio. Fe-Co-B layer with high 4 $\pi$Ms of about 23 kG deposited on Ni-Fe and Ni-Fe/Si seedlayer exhibited very high in-plane magnetic anisotropy filed Hk of about 280 and 380 Oe, respectively, In-plane XRD studies clarified that the lattice spacing of planes along the easy axis direction was longer than that along the hard axis direction in the Fe-Co-B layers with high Hk. These results indicate that high Hk of Fe-Co-B/Ni-Fe and Fe-Co-B/［Ni-Fe/si］ layers were resulted from magnetoelastic anisotropy owing to a residual stress. Moreover, the high Hk in the Fe-Co-B/Ni-Fe layer was maintained until 30$0^{\circ}C$ annealing temperature.

Using first principles calculations, we investigated the interface structure effects on the magnetic properties of the Fe/BaTiO3 system. On the BaO-terminated surface, a Fe monolayer is formed as two Fe atoms are adsorbed on the top sites of Ba and O in the ($1{\times}1$) surface unit and a Fe ML is formed on the TiO2-terminated surface as two Fe atoms are adsorbed on the two O top sites. The magnetic anisotropy energy of Fe was higher on the TiO2?-erminated surface (1.5 eV) than on the BaO-terminated surface (0.5 eV). The decomposed electron density of the states showed that the stronger hybridization of Fe with the TiO2 layer than with the BaO layer is the most important reason for the higher magnetic anisotropy energy.

Si(001)기판 위에 길러진 거대 자기 저항을 가지는 Co/Cu 다층 자성 박막에서 관측된 특이한 GMR 효과를 기판과 박막사이의 경계면 효과를 도입한 간단한 모형으로 설명하였다. 이 모형과 실험으로부터 자기 상수들을 구하였으며, 얻어진 상수들을 다른 논문에서 보고되어진 값들과 비교하였다. 제시된 모형은 경계면에 의해 유도된 다수의 easy axes를 갖는 다른 GMR 물질에도 적용할 수 있으며, 이 모형을 이용하여 기판 물질과 기판의 평면을 적절히 선택함으로서 자기 저항을 조절할 수 있는 새로운 방법을 찾을 수 있다고 판단된다.

The temperature dependence of the effective magnetic anisotropy constant K(T) of ferrite nanoparticles is obtained based on the measurements of SQUID magnetometry. For this end, a very simple but intuitive and direct method for determining the temperature dependence of anisotropy constant K(T) in nanoparticles is introduced in this study. The anisotropy constant at a given temperature is determined by associating the particle size distribution f(r) with the anisotropy energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$. In order to estimate the particle size distribution f(r), the first quadrant part of the hysteresis loop is fitted to the classical Langevin function weight-averaged with the log?normal distribution, slightly modified from the original Chantrell's distribution function. In order to get an anisotropy energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$, the temperature dependence of magnetization decay $M_{TD}$ of the sample is measured. For this measurement, the sample is cooled from room temperature to 5 K in a magnetic field of 100 G. Then the applied field is turned off and the remanent magnetization is measured on stepwise increasing the temperature. And the energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$ is obtained by differentiating the magnetization decay curve at any temperature. It decreases with increasing temperature and finally vanishes when all the particles in the sample are unblocked. As a next step, a relation between r and $T_B$ is determined from the particle size distribution f(r) and the anisotropy energy barrier distribution $f_A(T)$. Under the simple assumption that the superparamagnetic fraction of cumulative area in particle size distribution at a temperature is equal to the fraction of anisotropy energy barrier overcome at that temperature in the anisotropy energy barrier distribution, we can get a relation between r and $T_B$, from which the temperature dependence of the magnetic anisotropy constant was determined, as is represented in the inset of Fig. 1. Substituting the values of r and $T_B$ into the $N{\acute{e}}el$-Arrhenius equation with the attempt time fixed to $10^{-9}s$ and measuring time being 100 s which is suitable for conventional magnetic measurement, the anisotropy constant K(T) is estimated as a function of temperature (Fig. 1). As an example, the resultant effective magnetic anisotropy constant K(T) of manganese ferrite decreases with increasing temperature from $8.5{\times}10^4J/m^3$ at 5 K to $0.35{\times}10^4J/m^3$ at 125 K. The reported value for K in the literatures is $0.25{\times}10^4J/m^3$. The anisotropy constant at low temperature region is far more than one order of magnitude larger than that at 125 K, indicative of the effects of inter?particle interaction, which is more pronounced for smaller particles.

스퍼터링 중 500~600 Oe의 자기장을 인가한 상태에서 제조된 비정징 Sm-Fe 합금 박막에서 6$\times$104 J/m3 크기의 유도자기이방성이 형성되었다. 자장 증착에 이해유도자기이방성이 형성된 합금 박막은 이방성이 형성되지 않은 합금 박막에 비해 자구 구조에 무관한 "포화" 자기변형은 유사하지만, 측정 방향에 따른 자기변형의 이방성 비는 최대 35 정도로서 매우 크게 증가하였다. 이는 자기변형 박막의 디바이스 응용시 성능을 크게 향상시키므로, 실용적인 측면에서 매우 중요하다. 스퍼터링 중 자기장을 인가하지 않고 통상의 마그네트론 스퍼터링에 의해 제조된 비정질 Sm-Fe 합금 박막을 넓은 조성 범위에 걸쳐서 체계적으로 소자한 결과, 이러한 합금 박막에서도 미약하나마 스퍼터링 중의 누설 자계에 의해 증착 도중 유도자기이방성이 형성되는 것을 관찰하였으며, 최대의 유도자기이방성은 Sm 함량 25~30 원자%에서 얻어졌다. 또한 본 합금 박막의 유도자기이방성은 자장 중 열처리에 의해서도 형성되는 것을 관찰하였는데, 형성된 이방성의 크기는 자장 증착에 의해 제조된 시료보다 매우 작게 나타났다. 이는 자장 증착의 경우 원자의 표면 확산을 통한 원자의 이동에 의해 유도자기이방성이 형성되나, 증착 후 자장 열처리에 의한 경우는 체적 확산에 의해 유도자기이방성이 형성되기 때문으로 생각된다.때문으로 생각된다.

The magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) and the saturation magnetization $B_s$ of (110) $Fe_nCo_n$ heterostructures with n = 1, 2, and 3 are investigated in first-principles within the density functional theory by using the precise full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method. We compare the results employing two different exchange correlation potentials, that is, the local density approximation (LDA) and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), and include the spin-orbit coupling interaction of the valence states in the second variational way. The MAE is found to be enhanced significantly compared to those of bulk Fe and Co and the magnetic easy axis is in-plane in agreement with experiment. Also the MAE exhibits the in-plane angle dependence with a two-fold anisotropy showing that the $[1{\overline{I}}0]$ direction is the most favored spin direction. We found that as the periodicity increases, (i) the saturation magnetization $B_s$ decreases due to the reduced magnetic moment of Fe far from the interface, (ii) the strength of in-plane preference of spin direction increases yielding enhancement of MAE, and (iii) the volume anisotropy coefficient decreases because the volume increase outdo the MAE enhancement.

Anisotropy coupling in thin films with mixed induced and shape anisotropies is investigated. A 200-nm-thick Co-Fe-Pd-B thin film with a large induced anisotropy of 57 Oe is fabricated and then patterned into micron-sized cells to provide shape anisotropy, whose strength has a similar magnitude to that of the induced anisotropy for enhancing the anisotropy coupling. The angles between the two mixed anisotropies considered are $0^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, and $110^{\circ}$. Hysteresis loops measured under in-plane magnetic fields along various directions indicate no anisotropy coupling behaviour for all the three angles examined in this study.
