The continuous demands of the computer industry for increased reliability, portability, and density of storage media, has opened a new chapter in the magnetic recording research, by focusing on the viability of magneto-optical materials for storage. Several materials are considered presently to be at the forefront of this new quest: ternary rare-earth transition-metal alloys (such as GdTbFe or TbFeCo), garnets, and Co/Pt or Co/Pd mutilayers. Of these, the ferrimagnetic garnets, due to their relatively flexible structure, may accommodate a large number of substituting ions, allowing thus for a very good control of their magnetic and magneto-optical properties. The good results obtained during thegrowth of epitaxial superconducting oxide thin films by pulsed laser deposition (PLD), has encouragedus to try this novel deposition technique in the growth of multilayered heteroepitaxial ferrimagneticiron garnet thin films.Superlattice heterostructures consisting of alternating single crystalline ferrimagnetic yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) and bismuth-iron-garnet (BIG) thin film layers, as well as alternating YIG and europiumsubstituted BIG (EBIG), were deposited on single crystalline (111) paramagnetic gadolinium-galliumgarnet (GGG) substrates.

The relative intensities of the ED spots in a cross-grating pattern can be calculated using N-beam electron diffraction theory. The scattering matrix formulation of N-beam ED theory has been previously applied to imperfect microcrystals of gold containing stacking disorder (coherent twinning) in the (111) crystal plane. In the present experiment an effort has been made to grow single-crystalline, defect-free (111) gold films of a uniform and accurately know thickness using vacuum evaporation techniques. These represent stringent conditions to be met experimentally; however, if a meaningful comparison is to be made between theory and experiment, these factors must be carefully controlled. It is well-known that crystal morphology, perfection, and orientation each have pronounced effects on relative intensities in single crystals.The double evaporation method first suggested by Pashley was employed with some modifications. Oriented silver films of a thickness of about 1500Å were first grown by vacuum evaporation on freshly cleaved mica, with the substrate temperature at 285° C during evaporation with the deposition rate at 500-800Å/sec.

AbstractIn this paper the relationships between the crystal structure, chemical composition and electronic structure of laser materials, and their optical properties are discussed. A brief description is given of the different laser activators and of the influence of the matrix on laser characteristics in terms of crystal field strength, symmetry, covalency and phonon frequencies. The last part of the paper lays emphasis on the means to optimize the matrix-activator properties such as control of the oxidation state and site occupancy of the activator and influence of its concentration.
