The magnetic properties of an iron nitride thin film obtained by ion implantation have been investigated. N[Formula: see text] ions were implanted in a pristine iron layer epitaxially grown on ZnSe/GaAs(001). X-ray diffraction measurements revealed the formation of body-centered tetragonal N-martensite whose [Formula: see text]-axis is perpendicular to the thin film plane and [Formula: see text]-parameter is close to that of [Formula: see text]-Fe8N. Magnetic measurements disclosed a weak perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) whose energy density [Formula: see text] was assessed to about 105[Formula: see text]J/m3. A sharp decline of the in-plane magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) was also observed, in comparison with the body-centered cubic iron. The origin of the PMA is attributed to the MCA of N-martensite and/or stress-induced anisotropy. As a result of the PMA, weak magnetic stripe domains with a period of about 130[Formula: see text]nm aligned along the last saturating magnetic field direction were observed at remanence by magnetic force microscopy. The application of an increasing in-plane magnetic field transverse to the stripes [Formula: see text] highlighted a threshold value ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text]T) above which these magnetic domains irreversibly rotated. Interestingly, below this threshold, the stripes do not rotate, leading to a zero remanent magnetization along the direction of the applied field. The interest of this system for magnetization dynamics is discussed.

AbstractThe present paper discusses the magnetic anisotropy and magnetic domain structure of highly ordered epitaxial FePt(001) films grown on Pt seeded MgO(001) substrates. These films were grown by dc-magnetron sputtering from a Fe50Pt50 alloy target at a substrate temperature of 550°C during deposition. Thicknesses were varied between 15 and 170 nm. The presence of the highly anisotropic face centered tetragonal L10 crystal structure with a maximum long range chemical ordering of 95% and a low degree of misorientations was confirmed by specular and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction measurements. For film thicknesses ≥ 50 nm in-plane and out-of-plane hysteresis measurements indicate large perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and at the same time low remanent magnetisation. Magnetic force microscopy reveals highly interconnected perpendicular stripe domain patterns. From their characteristic width, which is strongly dependent on the film thickness, a value of the dipolar length, D0, of 50 ±5 nm is derived. Assuming an exchange constant of 10-6 erg/cm, this value is consistent with an anisotropy constant Ku ∼ 1.108 erg/cc.

There is currently great interest in magnetic multilayer (ML) thin films (see e.g.), because they display some interesting magnetic properties. Co/Pd and Co/Au ML systems exhibit perpendicular magnetic anisotropy below certain Co layer thicknesses, which makes them candidates for applications in the field of magneto-optical recording. It has been found that the magnetic anisotropy of a particular system strongly depends on the preparation method (vapour deposition, sputtering, ion beam sputtering) as well as on the substrate, underlayer and deposition temperature. In order to get a better understanding of the correlation between microstructure and properties a thorough cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM) study of vapour deposited Co/Pd and Co/Au (111) MLs was undertaken (for more detailed results see ref.).The Co/Pd films (with fixed Pd thickness of 2.2 nm) were deposited on mica substrates at substrate temperatures Ts of 20°C and 200°C, after prior deposition of a 100 nm Pd underlayer at 450°C.
