  • Since the wall mobility of bubble magnetic materials havin g the large q (q=Kac/2$\pi$$M_s^2$) like a $YFeO_3$ has been found to be proportional to the wall energy theoretically crystallographical direction dependence of wall energy calculated by the basis on the spin configuration of the bubble wall which lies in the ac plane was compared with the crystallographical direction dependence of wall mobility which was measured by the experiment. The sample was a single crystal of $YFeO_3$ which was cut into plate normal to the C axis and polished t a thickness of about 60${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ The measurement of the wall mobility was carried out by optical system using the magneto-optic Faraday effect. From the good agreement of the crystallographical direction dependence of wall mobility and will energy it was found that the spin configuration of the bubble wall suggested is fair.

  • 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.

  • Single crystalline Fe/NiO bilayers were epitaxially grown on Ag(001) and on MgO(001), and investigated by Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED), Magneto-Optic Kerr Effect (MOKE), and X-ray Magnetic Linear Dichorism (XMLD). We find that while the Fe film has an in-plane magnetization in both Fe/NiO/Ag(001) and Fe/NiO/MgO(001) systems, the NiO spins switch from out-of-plane direction in Fe/NiO/MgO(001) to in-plane direction in Fe/NiO/Ag(001). These two different NiO spin orientations generate remarkable different effects that the NiO induced magnetic anisotropy in the Fe film is much greater in Fe/NiO/Ag(001) than in Fe/NiO/MgO(001). XMLD measurement shows that the much greater magnetic anisotropy in Fe/NiO/Ag(001) is due to a 90o-coupling between the in-plane NiO spins and the in-plane Fe spins which causes a switching of the NiO spins during the Fe magnetization reversal.

  • Equiatomic FePt and CoPt alloy thin films have received considerable attention as possible magnetic and magneto-optic recording because of their high magnetic anisotropy energy and high coercivity. The high coercivity in these thin films is due to the presence of finely dispersed ordered FePt phase mixed with disordered FePt phase. However, a high temperature treatment, either substrate heating during deposition or post annealing, is needed to obtain the ordered L1$\_$0/ phase with high value of magneto crystalline anisotropy. Recent microstructural studies on these films suggest that the average grain size ranges from 10-50 nm and the grains are magnetically coupled between each other. On the other hand, the ultrahigh-density magnetic recording media with low media noise imposes the need of a material, which consists of magnetically isolated grains with size below 10 nm. The magnetic grain isolation can be controlled by the amount of additional non-magnetic element in the system which determines the interparticle separation and therefore the interparticle interactions. Recently, much research work has been done on various non-magnetic matrices. Preliminary studies showed that the samples prepared in B$_2$O$_3$ and Carbon matrices have shown strong perpendicular anisotropy and fine grain size down to 4nm, which suggest these nanocomposite films are very promising and may lead to the realization of a magnetic medium capable of recording densities beyond 1 Tb/in$^2$. So, in this work, the effect of Carbon doping on the magnetic properties of FePt nanoparticles were investigated.

  • In this paper, we described the laboratory layout of the optical CT in connection with the measurement of large current based on Magneto-Optic Effects. It was used He-Ne laser for light source and was used PIN-Photodiode for light receiver. The sensing section was organized by winding optical fiber around conductor on the concept that the rotation angle of polarizing axis by Faraday Effect is proportional to the applied current in to conduction. The optical signal passed through optical fiber sensor was induced to analyzer arranged in the direction of $\theta$ for input polarization, and then analyzed its rotation angle and researched on operating characteristics of optical CT for 60[Hz] AC current measurement from l00[A] to 1000[A] was carried out. In this results, the output signals induced linearly with the current and proved that the intensity is increased with increasing turns of fiber through output differences which in accordance with turns of fiber and we verified that there is not only difference of the output with the medium between electric field and optical fiber, but also the lineality. Measuring the references and output intensities of the optical CT, ratio errors were within $\pm$7%. This confirmed that error rate will be improved by each medium and turns.

  • Rare earth metal films have been used as a buffer layer for growing ferroelectric t thin film or a seed layer for magnetic multilayer. But when it was deposited on s semiconductor substrates for the application of magneto-optic (MO) storage media, it i is difficult to exactly measure magnetic cons떠nts due to shunting current, and so it n needs to grow metal films on insulator substrate to reduce such effect. Recently, it w was reported that ultra-thin Pt layer were epitaxially grown on A12O:J by ion beam s sputtering in 비떠 high vacuum and it can be used as a seed layer for the growth of C Co-contained magnetic multilayer. In this stu$\phi$, Pt thin film were epi떠xially grown on AI2D3 ($\alpha$)OJ) by RF magnetron s sputtering. The crystalline structure was analyzed by transmission electron microscope ( (TEM) and Rutherford Back Scattering (RBS)/Ion Channeling. In TEM study, Pt was b believed to be twinned on AI잉3($\alpha$)01) su$\pi$ace about Pt(ll1) plane.Moreover, RBS c channeling spectra showed that minimum scattering yield of Pt(111)/AI2O:J(1$\alpha$)OJ) was 4 4% and Pt(11J)/AI2D3($\alpha$)OJ) had 3-fold symmetry.

  • The spin structure of Fe over layers on Cu (001), especially in region II is one of the unsolved problem for many years. We study the out - of - plane (OP) Fermi surfaces (FSs) of 7 monolayer Fe/Cu (001) films using angle resolved photo emission spectroscopy (ARPES). Ultrathin Fe was grown on Cu (001) substrate at room temperature and the experimental measurements were carried out at room temperature and low temperature. Fermi surfaces measured about $\frac{1}{4}$ of the Brillouin Zone (BZ) using photon energies ranging from 170 eV to 280 eV. Our results confirmed that ferromagnetic signal at 7 ML Fe on Cu (001) is nearly zero. These results are consistent with our recent x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and surface magneto - optic Kerr effect (SMOKE) experiments. Based on our observations we have made a simple model of this system, which explains all the experimental results.

  • We have investigated an optical waveguide isolator with a multimode interference section by wafer direct bonding, operating at a wavelength $1.55\;{\mu}m$. In order to fabricate the device for monolithic integration, the wafer direct bonding between a magnetic garnet material as a cladding layer and a semiconductor guiding layer has been achieved. We found that wafer direct bonding between InP and GGG $(Gd_3Ga_5O_{12})$ is effective for the integration of a waveguide optical isolator. The isolation ratio was obtained to be 2.9 dB in the device.

  • An artificially modulated magnetic Co/Pd multilayer is one of the promising candidates for high density magneto-optic (MO) recording media, due to a large Kerr rotation angle in the wavelength of a blue laser beam. However, since multilayer structure, as well as amorphous structure, is a non-equilibrium state in terms of free energy and a MO recording technology is a kind of thermal recording which is conducted around Curie temperature (Tc) of the recording media, when the Co/Pd mulilayer is used for the MO recording media, changes in the magnetic properties are occurred as the amorphous structure do. Therefore, the assessment of the magnetic properties in the Co/Pd multilayer during interdiffusion is crucially important both for basic research and applications. As the parameter of the magnetic properties in this research, saturation magnetization and perpendicular magnetic anisotropy energy of the Co/Pd multilayer are measured in terms of Ar sputtering pressure and heat treatment temperature. Form the results of the research, we find out that the magnetic exchange energy between Co and Pd sublayers strongly affects the changes in the magnetic properties of the Co/Pd multilayers during the interdiffusion in ferromagnetic state. This discovery will provide the understanding of the magnetic exchange energy in the Co/Pd multilayer structure and suggest the operating temperature range for MO recording in the Co/Pd multilayer for the basic research and applications, respectively.
