Electron beam lithography and ion beam etching have been used to pattern a wire-like array in FeMn/NiFe bilayers. The variation of hysteresis loops with the etching depth in FeMn layer has been presented, and it has been found that with increasing etching depth the coercivity increases and M–H loops show an asymmetric kink. Detailed studies of the magnetic behaviors of the asymmetric kink in the patterned sample with 3.5 nm thick FeMn layer have been performed, and a magnetization component perpendicular to the wire direction has been observed. 相似文献

Structural investigations of the ion irradiated polycrystalline NiFe/FeMn
exchange bias bilayer system were carried out by means of transmission
electron microscopy. Key structural parameters like average grain size,
lattice constant, and texture, as well as their dependence upon ion
irradiation were determined. This information was extracted from a detailed
analysis of a series of bright field images, dark field images, and
diffraction patterns. Furthermore a previously established model was tested
which ascribes changes in the magnetic properties upon irradiation with 5 keV He+ ions
to the creation of point defects within the antiferromagnetic
layer and to the intermixing between the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic
layers. The obtained results indirectly support this model by excluding a
change of the aforementioned structural parameters as a possible source of
the observed modifications of the magnetic properties. 相似文献

We have studied the effect of roughness on the exchanged biased NiFe/FeMn/NiFe trilayers system. The samples were prepared under three different argon working pressures (2, 5 and 10 mTorr) to obtain different roughness degrees. The root mean square roughness of the NiFe/FeMn interfaces enhances as the argon working pressure during the deposition increases from 2 to 10 mTorr. High-angle X-ray diffraction reveals that the samples have 1 1 1 texture and besides, possible changes in grain size could be an extra contribution to the interfacial roughness. Magnetometry measurements have shown that the coervive field enhances as the root mean square roughness of the NiFe/FeMn interfaces increases, while the dependence of the exchange bias field runs in the opposite way. 相似文献

For FeCr/IrMn bilayers, the exchange bias training effect and the magnetization reversal mechanism are correlated to each other and depend on the composition of the ferromagnetic layer. For high Fe contents, the asymmetric magnetization reversal is observed. During the training effect, both exchange field and coercivity decrease monotonically, suggesting a type I training effect. For low Fe contents, the domain wall depinning takes place for the two hysteresis loop branches. Only exchange field diminution happens in the training effect. The coercivity almost does not change in the process, corresponding to a type II training effect. It is suggested that the motion of antiferromagnetic spins is modified by the magnetization reversal mechanism in the ferromagnetic layer. 相似文献

For FeNi/FeMn bilayers, the angular dependence of exchange bias shows hysteresis between clockwise and counterclockwise rotations, as a new signature. The hysteresis decreases for thick antiferromagnet layers. Calculations have clearly shown that the orientation of antiferromagnet spins also exhibits hysteresis between clockwise and counterclockwise rotations. This furnishes an interpretation of the macroscopic behavior of the ferromagnetic layer in terms of the thermally driven evolution of the magnetic state of the antiferromagnet layer. 相似文献

The exchange bias and crystalline texture of the multilayer structure (Ta/Al/seed/Fe50Mn50/Ni81Fe19/Al2O3/Ni81Fe19/Al/Ta with seed=Ni81Fe19 or Ni81Fe19/Cu) has been characterized. Measurements indicate an abrupt decrease in exchange bias of the Ni81Fe19 pinned layer for samples with very thin seed layers, and exchange bias as high as 325 Oe for thicker seed layers. Fluctuation of exchange bias with thickness was greatly reduced for the Ni81Fe19/Cu seed configuration. X-ray diffraction measurements demonstrate a correlation between exchange bias and strong (1 1 1) texture of FeMn. The results suggest a high sensitivity of Ni81Fe19 roughness and texture on deposition conditions, and corroborate previous observations of roughness in ultrathin NiFe films. 相似文献

Effect of low energy ion beam etching on exchange bias in NiFe/FeMn/NiFe
trilayer is investigated in multilayers prepared by rf magnetron sputtering.
Stepwise etching and magnetization measurement of FeMn layer in an NiFe/FeMn
bilayer show increase of bias as etching proceeds and FeMn thickness
decreases. The bias show a maximum around 7 nm FeMn thickness and then fall
sharply below 5 nm, broadly in line with the exchange bias variation at
increasing FeMn thickness but in reverse order, particularly at low FeMn
thickness. Progressive etching of top NiFe layer in the NiFe/FeMn/NiFe
trilayer shows an initial gradual increase in bias followed by a sharp
increase below 7 nm thickness of top NiFe layer, with a maximum at 2 nm
thickness for both NiFe layers and greater bias for seed NiFe layer. 相似文献

A significant exchange bias(EB) training effect has been observed in sputter deposited FeAu/FeNi bilayers, wherein the exchange field(HE) exhibits a special sign-changeable temperature dependence. Very interestingly, despite the absence of multiple easy axes in the FeAu spin glass(SG) layer, HEdrops abruptly between the first and second magnetic cycles,which is followed by a more gradual continuous change in the subsequent cycles. This training behavior cannot be described by the empirical n-1/2law because of the asymmetric magnetization reversal processes. We propose modifying Binek’s model to include the asymmetric changes of the pinning SG spins at the descending and ascending branches. This new model successfully describes the EB training effect in FeAu/FeNi bilayers. 相似文献

The training effect and asymmetry in exchange-coupled polycrystalline CoO/Co bilayers with in-plane magnetization has been investigated. This system is selected for its large training effect and initial asymmetry of the magnetic hysteresis after field cooling, which is removed after training. Applying an in-plane magnetic field perpendicular to the cooling field largely restores the untrained state with its pronounced asymmetry. The possibility to reinduce the asymmetry strongly depends on the magnitude of the perpendicular field, providing the key to identify the physical origin of training and removal of the asymmetry. These effects result from misalignment between the ferromagnetic magnetization and the uncompensated magnetization of the granular antiferromagnet. 相似文献

We performed a detailed study of the training effect in exchange biased CoO/Co bilayers. High-resolution measurements of the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) display an asymmetry in the first magnetization reversal process and training in the subsequent reversal processes. Surprisingly, the AMR measurements as well as magnetization measurements reveal that it is possible to partially reinduce the untrained state by performing a hysteresis measurement with an in-plane external field perpendicular to the cooling field. Indeed, the next hysteresis loop obtained in a field parallel to the cooling field resembles the initial asymmetric hysteresis loop, but with a reduced amount of spin rotation occurring at the first coercive field. This implies that the antiferromagnetic domains, which are created during the first reversal after cooling, can be partially erased. 相似文献

A series of polycrystalline Ag-doped Ni1−xAgxO/Ni bilayers with x up to 0.2 were prepared by magnetron sputtering. X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy and transmission electron microscopy analyses reveal that Ag doping significantly reduces the mean NiO grain size and leads to the appearance of Ag nanoparticles on the surface of the Ag-doped NiO films. As x increases, the exchange bias field and coercivity at room temperature decrease as a consequence of the reduced thermal stability of smaller NiO grains and the screening effect resulting from the interfacial Ag nanoparticles. At lower temperatures, a slight enhancement of the exchange bias field is observed in the Ag-doped sample, indicating that the Ag doping increases the uncompensated NiO spin density. In addition, our studies find that the training effect of the Ag-doped sample can be well described by a spin configurational relaxation model, regardless of the presence of Ag nanopartiles at the interface. 相似文献

Experimental results show that Cu atoms can float out to or segregate to the NiFe/FeMn interface for Ta/NiFe/Cu/NiFe/FeMn/Ta spin-valve multilayers, which results in a drop of the exchange-coupling field (Hex) of NiFe/FeMn in the spin-valve multilayers. However, when a small amount of Bi atoms is deposited between the Cu and the pinned NiFe layers, Cu segregation to the NiFe/FeMn interface can be suppressed. At the same time, Hex of NiFe/FeMn in the spin-valve multilayers with a Bi interfacial layer can be effectively increased. PACS 75.70.Cn; 82.80.Pv 相似文献
