  • We fabricated textured polycrystalline $CoFe_2O_4$ thin films on $Pt(111)/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrate through a sol-gel method. We varied the thickness of the films, by using precursor solutions with different concentrations of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 M, and by depositing 5, 8, or 10 layers on the substrate by spin-coating. X-ray diffraction spectra indicated that when the precursor concentration of the solution was higher than 0.1 M, the spin-coated films were preferentially oriented in the <111> direction. Inspection of the surface morphology by scanning electron microscopy revealed that $CoFe_2O_4$ thin films prepared with 0.2 M solution and 5-time spin-coatings had smoother surface, as compared to the other conditions. Each coating had an average thickness of about 50 nm. The magnetic properties measured by vibrating sample magnetometer showed magnetic anisotropy, as evidenced from the difference in the in-plane and out-of-plane hysteresis loops, which we attributed to the textured orientation of the $CoFe_2O_4$ thin films.

  • Permalloy($Ni_{80}-Fe_{20}$) which is known for its soft magnetic properties is a well-known material that has been studied intensively. Permalloy nanoflakes were fabricated with the combination of electrodeposition and sonication process. Ultrasonic power was applied to the deposited alloy which produced nanoflakes in forms of sheet. High internal stress created cracks which helped the peeling of permalloy into nanosheets. Because of shape anisotropy, flakes could be aligned by magnetic field. The magnetic properties of the nanosheets were observed, and the variation of magnetic properties with the alignment of flake was also investigated.

  • Large-area micropatterned array of Co/Ni bilayer anti-dots was fabricated using photolithography and wet etching process. The surface morphology as well as the surface topography was checked by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy, whereas the magnetic properties were studied by magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) and magnetic force microscopy (MFM). Systematic studies of the magnetic-reversal mechanism, the in-plane anisotropy and the switching field properties were carried out. To get a comprehensive knowledge about the domain configuration, we also employed OOMMF simulations. It was found from the MOKE measurements that a combined effect of configurational and the magneto-crystalline anisotropy simultaneously works in such micropatterned bilayer structures. In addition, the inclusion of holes in the uniform magnetic film drastically affected the switching field. The MFM images show well-defined domain structures which are periodic in nature. The micromagnetic simulations indicate that the magnetization reversal of such a structure proceeds by formation and annihilation of domain walls, which were equally manifested by the field-dependent MFM images. The observed changes in the magnetic properties are strongly related to both the patterning that hinders the domain-wall motion and to the magneto-anisotropic bilayered structure.

  • We predict agigantic perpendicular magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) in Fe (001) capped by 5d transition metal (TM) overlayers by using first principles calculations. Analysis of atom-by-atom contribution to MCA reveals that gigantic MCA as large as 11 meV/TM originates not from Fe atoms but from the 5d TMs through the strong spin-orbit coupling. More specifically, it is the hybridization between TM and Fe d orbitals that also induces non-negligible magnetic moments in TM. Furthermore, spin-channel decompositions of MCA matrix with and without the presence of Fe substrate identify the electronic origin of the perpendicular MCA that the down-down channel contribution plays the most crucial role for the sign changes of MCA of TM overlayers upon the hybridization with Fe-3d.

  • The search for high-density recording materials has been one of most active and vigorous field in the field of magnetism. $FePt-L1_{0}$ nanoparticle has emerged as a potential candidate because of its high anisotropy. In this paper, we provide an overview of recent work at Argonne National Laboratory that contributes to the ongoing dialogue concerning the relation between structure and properties of the FePt nanoparticle system. In particular we discuss the ability to control structure and properties via dosing with Cr. Cr-dosed FePt films were grown via molecular beam epitaxy and annealed at $550^{\circ}C$ in an ultrahigh vacuum chamber, and were studied with the surface magneto-optic Kerr effect (SMOKE), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). We found that small dosage of Cr helps to generate $L1_{0}$ phase FePt magnetic nanoparticles with small size, defined shape and regular spatial distribution on MgO (001) substrate. The nanostructures are ferromagnetic with high magnetic coercivity (${\sim}0.9T$) and magnetic easy axis in the desired out-of-plane orientation. We also show that controlling the lateral region where nanostructures exist is possible via artificial patterning with Cr.

  • 본 연구에서는 NiFe 박막 시편을 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법으로 제조하여 박막면 기준으로 수직면(out-of-plane) 자기장 방향과 수평면(in-plane) 자기장 방향에 따른 강자성 공명 자기장을 측정하였다. 수직면 자기장 방향에 따른 강자성 공명 자기장으로부터 유효자화량($M_{eff}$)을 도출하였으며, NiFe 두께에 따른 $M_{eff}$의 감소는 $K_s=-0.23\;erg/cm^2$의 값을 갖는 표면 이방성 상수에 기인하였다. 또한 수평면 자기장 방향에 따른 강자성 공명 자기장으로부터 수평면에서의 일축 이방성 자기장을 도출하였다. 한편, 일축 이방성 에너지의 자화 용이축이 두께가 감소함에 따라 시편 제조 시 인가한 자기장의 반대 방향으로 회전하고 있었으며, 이러한 현상은 시편 표면에 형성된 NiFeO의 반강자성 특성에 의한 현상으로 설명하였다.

  • 열처리 효과가 DC 마그네트론 스파터링 방법으로 제작한 $Co_{1-x}$ $Ti_{x}$(X = 0.13, 0.16, 0.21 at.%)계 박막의 표면자기특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여, 제작된 시료를 150 .deg. C, 175 .deg. C, 200 .deg. C, 225 .deg. C 및 250 .deg. C의 공기 분위기에서 각각 1 시간씩 열처리한 후, 강자성 공명 실험을 통해 관측된 스핀파 공명 흡수선의 거동을 고찰했다. 모든 시료에 대해 다수의 volume mode 스핀파와 한 개 또는 두 개의 surgace mode 스핀파가 관측되었는데, 대체적으로 이와같은 현상은 시료 양면의 표면이방성이 0보다 작은 경우에 나타나는 특성이다. 열처리 온도가 150 .deg. C에서 250 .deg. C로 증가함에 따라 $K_{s2}$는 -0.11 erg/c $m_{2}$에서 -0.25 erg/$cm^{2}$로 미약하게 감소했으며, $K_{s1}$은 0.16 erg/$cm^{2}$에서 -0.53 erg/$cm^{2}$로 변화하는 모습을 보였다. 이와 같은 현상은 저온 열처리 과정(150 .deg. C ~ 200 .deg. C) 에서 공기쪽 표면층에 존재하는 Ti이 산화하여 공기쪽 표면층의 Co함량이 증가했고, 고온 열처리 과정 (225 .deg. C ~ 250 .deg. C)에서 Co 원자가 확산하므로서 나타나는 현상으로 해석된다.석된다.
