BiFeO3/Ni81Fe19磁性双层膜中的交换偏置及其热稳定性研究

研究了磁场诱导生长的BiFeO₃/Ni₁₈Fe₁₉磁性双层膜中 的交换偏置及其热稳定性. 结果表明: BiFeO₃/Ni₁₈Fe₁₉双层膜中的交换偏置场H_ex未表现出明显的磁练习效应. 在负饱和磁场等待过程中, BiFeO₃/Ni₁₈Fe₁₉双层膜磁滞回线的前支和后支曲 线都随着在负饱和磁场中等待时间t_sat的增加向正场方向偏移. 交换偏置场H_ex的大小随着等待时间t_sat的增加而减小, 矫顽力H_c基本不变. 交换偏置场H_ex的大小随测量温度T_m的升高变化不明显, 表现出良好的热稳定性; 但矫顽力H_c随T_m的升高而显著减小. 良好的热稳定性应该来源于铁电性和反铁磁性间的共同耦合作用. 关键词： 多铁性 磁性薄膜 交换偏置 热稳定性     

Rotational magnetization processes in exchange biased Ni81Fe19/Fe50Mn50 bilayers

The rotational magnetization process of an exchange coupled Ni₈₁Fe₁₉(10 nm)/Fe₅₀Mn₅₀(10 nm) bilayer was studied by Kerr microscopy. The domain processes in rotating magnetic fields near the exchange bias field H_eb are very sensitive to local variations of coupling strength and direction. A characteristic domain splitting was found that shows a remarkably different behavior for weaker and stronger coupled areas. While the magnetization in weaker coupled areas follows the rotating field for H≈H_eb, the stronger coupled areas switch back spring-like. As a result high-angle walls are formed between both areas causing rotational hysteresis.     

Bi0.8Ba0.2FeO3/La0.7Sr0.3MnO3异质结制备及其交换偏置效应研究

采用脉冲激光沉积方法, 通过调节激光能量、激光频率、衬底温度、氧压、靶基距等工艺参数, 在(100)取向的铝酸镧单晶衬底上制备出Bi_0.8Ba_0.2FeO₃/La_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃多铁性异质结. X射线衍射图谱表明薄膜呈钙钛矿结构, 高分辨透射电镜图谱和能量色散X射线图谱表明两相界面清晰且具有良好的匹配度, 异质结呈(00l)取向性生长. 加场冷却条件下不同温度的磁滞回线(M-H)测量结果表明样品具有明显的交换偏置效应, 交换偏置场(H_EB)随温度的线性变化可能与异质结界面处电子轨道的重构和界面处自旋、轨道自由度之间的复杂的相互作用有关.     

Nd28Fe66B6/Fe50Co50双层纳米复合膜的结构和磁性

利用磁控溅射法制备了Nd₂₈Fe₆₆B₆/Fe_{50Co50 双层纳米复合磁性薄膜，研究了其结构和磁性.经873K退火处理15min 后，利用x射线衍射仪测定薄膜晶体结构，采用俄歇电子能谱仪估算薄膜厚度和超导量子干 涉仪测量其磁性.磁性测量表明，1)该系列薄膜具有垂直于膜面的磁各向异性.从起始磁化曲 线和小回线的形状特征可知，矫顽力机制主要是由畴壁钉扎控制.2)对于固定厚度（10nm） 层的硬磁相Nd-Fe-B和不同厚度（dFeCo=1—100nm）层软磁相FeCo双层纳米复合 膜,剩磁随软磁相FeCo 厚度的增加快速增加，而矫顽力则减少.当dFeCo=5nm 时 ，最大磁能积达到160×１０^３A/m.磁滞回线的单一硬磁相特征说明，硬磁相Nd -Fe-B层和软磁相FeCo层之间的相互作用使两相很好地耦合在一起.剩磁和磁能积的提高是由 于两相磁性交换耦合所致. 关键词： Nd-Fe-B/FeCo双层纳米复合膜 交换耦合 磁性增强}     

一级磁结构相变材料Mn0.6Fe0.4NiSi0.5Ge0.5和Ni50Mn34Co2Sn14的磁热效应与磁场的线性相关性

磁熵变（△S_M）与磁场（μ₀H）的相关性已在很多二级相变材料中被研究并报道,但一级相变材料的磁热效应与磁场相关性还少有报道.本文在具有一级磁结构相变的Mn_0.6Fe_0.4NiSi_0.5Ge_0.5材料中研究发现△S_M与μ₀H存在线性相关性,并通过麦克斯韦关系式的数值分析详细讨论了这一线性相关性的来源.同时,进一步发现在低磁场时,△S_M近似正比于μ₀H的平方.该线性相关性同样在一级磁结构相变Ni₅₀Mn₃₄Co₂Sn₁₄材料中得到了印证.但由于一级磁弹相变LaFe_11.7Si_1.3材料相变温度具有更强的磁场依赖性,不具有△S_M的线性相关性,因此,本研究表明,当磁结构相变材料的相变温度具有弱磁场依赖性时,△S_M与μ₀H具有线性相关性.进而,在磁场未达到相变饱和磁场以下,利用△S_M与μ₀H的线性相关性可以有效推测更高磁场下的△S_M.     

Fabrication and magnetic properties of Ni0.50.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibres by electrospinning

NiZn ferrite/polyvinylpyrrolidone composite fibres were prepared by sol–gel assisted electrospinning.Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibres with a pure cubic spinel structure were obtained subsequently by calcination of the composite fibres at high temperatures.This paper investigates the thermal decomposition process,structures and morphologies of the electrospun composite fibres and the calcined Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibres at different temperatures by thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis,x-ray diffraction,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy.The magnetic behaviour of the resultant nanofibres was studied by a vibrating sample magnetometer.It is found that the grain sizes of the nanofibres increase significantly and the nanofibre morphology gradually transforms from a porous structure to a necklace-like nanostructure with the increase of calcination temperature.The Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibres obtained at 1000 C for 2 h are characterized by a necklace-like morphology and diameters of 100–200 nm.The saturation magnetization of the random Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibres increases from 46.5 to 90.2 emu/g when the calcination temperature increases from 450 to 1000 C.The coercivity reaches a maximum value of 11.0 kA/m at a calcination temperature of 600 C.Due to the shape anisotropy,the aligned Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanofibres exhibit an obvious magnetic anisotropy and the ease magnetizing direction is parallel to the nanofibre axis.     

Thermal relaxation of exchange bias field in an exchange coupled CoFe/IrMn bilayer

This paper reports that a CoFe/IrMn bilayer was deposited by high vacuum magnetron sputtering on silicon wafer substrate; the thermal relaxation of the CoFe/IrMn bilayer is investigated by means of holding the film in a negative saturation field at various temperatures. The exchange bias decreases with increasing period of time while holding the film in a negative saturation field at a given temperature. Increasing the temperature accelerates the decrease of exchange field. The results can be explained by the quantitative model of the nucleation and growth of antiferromagnetic domains suggested by Xi H W et al. [2007 Phys. Rev. B 75 014434], and it is believed that two energy barriers exist in the investigated temperature range.     

Multiple antiferromagnet/ferromagnet interfaces as a probe of grain-size-dependent exchange bias in polycrystalline Co/Fe50Mn50

We have used ferromagnet/antiferromagnet/ferromagnet trilayers and ferromagnet/antiferromagnet multilayers to probe the grain size dependence of exchange bias in polycrystalline Co/Fe₅₀Mn₅₀. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy show that the Fe₅₀Mn₅₀ (FeMn) grain size increases with increasing FeMn thickness in the Co (30 Å)/FeMn system. Hence, in Co(30 Å)/FeMn(t_AF Å)/Co(30 Å) trilayers the two Co layers sample different FeMn grain sizes at the two antiferromagnet/ferromagnet interfaces. For FeMn thicknesses above 100 Å, where simple bilayers have a thickness-independent exchange bias, we are therefore able to deduce the influence of FeMn grain size on the exchange bias and coercivity (and their temperature dependence) simply by measuring trilayer and multilayer samples with varying FeMn thicknesses. This can be done while maintaining the (1 1 1) orientation, and with little variation in interface roughness. Increasing the average grain size from 90 to 135 Å results in a fourfold decrease in exchange bias, following an inverse grain size dependence. We interpret the results as being due to a decrease in uncompensated spin density with increasing antiferromagnet grain size, further evidence for the importance of defect-generated uncompensated spins.     

Determination of magnetic parameters by means of brillouinscattering. Examples: Fe,Ni, Ni0.8Fe0.2

We have used the new technique of Brillouin scattering from spinwaves in thin films for a determination of their magnetic parameters. Films of Fe, Ni and Ni_0.8Fe_0.2 (permalloy) have been investigated and we find good agreement with the results obtained by other methods. We also display spectra from all three materials and discuss some of their characteristic features. For Fe epitaxial growth on epipolished sapphire is reported here for the first time.     

Structure and magnetic order in La0.7Ca0.3Mn0.5Co0.5O3 and La0.8Sr0.2Mn0.5Co0.5O3 perovskites

In this paper we report the study of the perovskites La_0.7Ca_0.3Mn_0.5Co_0.5O₃ and La_0.8Sr_0.2Mn_0.5Co_0.5O₃ by neutron powder diffraction at various temperatures and magnetization measurements in zero applied field and at low cooling regimes. The replacement of half Mn by Co in La_0.7Ca_0.3MnO₃ and La_0.8Sr_0.2MnO₃ destroys their long-range ferromagnetism exhibiting a cluster glass ferromagnetic order similar to the one observed in many cobaltites.

Co掺杂对铁磁金属La0.8Sr0.2MnO3磁电阻影响机理

通过对La_0.8Sr_0.2Mn_1-yCo_yO₃(y≤02)饱和磁矩和输运的测量,研究了Co对La_0.8Sr_0.2MnO₃的磁电阻影响机制.结果表明,在La_0.8Sr_0.2Mn_1-yCo_yO₃（y≤02）中Co³⁺离子是低自旋态.由于Mn³⁺—O—Co³⁺—O—Mn³⁺类型的磁交换与Mn³⁺-Mn⁴⁺离子间双交换作用相比较弱,Curie温度T_C附近的磁电阻随着Co掺杂量的增加而降低.与此相反,由于Co²⁺离子与e_g巡游电子的反铁磁交换耦合作用,低温区间的磁电阻随着Co掺杂量的增加而升高.     

Maxwell-Wagner characterization of dielectric relaxation in Ni0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4/Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6 composite

Dense composites were prepared through incorporating the dispersed Ni_0.8Zn_0.2Fe₂O₄ ferromagnetic particles into Sr_0.5Ba_0.5Nb₂O₆ ferroelectric matrix. Extrinsic dielectric relaxation and associated high permittivities of the materials are reported in the composites. We used an ideal equivalent circuit to explain electrical responses in impedance formalism. A Debye-like relaxation in the permittivity formalism was also found. Interestingly, real permittivity (ε′) of the sample containing 30% Ni_0.8Zn_0.2Fe₂O₄ shows obvious independence of the temperature at 100 kHz. Dielectric relaxation and high-ε′ properties of the composites are explained in terms of the Maxwell-Wagner (MW) polarization model.     

Preparation and magnetic properties of BaFe12O19/Ni0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4 nanocomposite ferrite

Nanocomposite of hard (BaFe₁₂O₁₉)/soft ferrite (Ni_0.8Zn_0.2Fe₂O₄) have been prepared by the sol–gel process. The nanocomposite ferrite are formed when the calcining temperature is above 800 °C. It is found that the magnetic properties strongly depend on the presintering treatment and calcining temperature. The “bee waist” type hysteresis loops for samples disappear when the presintering temperature is 400 °C and the calcination temperature reaches 1100 °C owing to the exchange-coupling interaction. The remanence of BaFe₁₂O₁₉/Ni_0.8Zn_0.2Fe₂O₄ nanocomposite ferrite with the mass ratio of 5:1 is higher than a single phase ferrite. The specific saturation magnetization, remanence magnetization and coercivity are 63 emu/g, 36 emu/g and 2750 G, respectively. The exchange-coupling interaction in the BaFe₁₂O₁₉/Ni_0.8Zn_0.2Fe₂O₄ nanocomposite ferrite is discussed.     

Effects of oblique-incidence evaporation on magnetic properties of Fe20Ni80/Fe70Co30 bilayer film

Evaporative deposition at oblique incidence is shown to enhance the magnetic anisotropy of an Fe₂₀Ni₈₀ magnetic film and induce magnetic anisotropy in an overlying, strongly isotropic Fe₇₀Co₃₀ film. This deposition method for the formation of an underlayer of several lattice parameters in thickness and semi-hard overlayer of a few thousands Angstroms in thickness achieves a significant change in the magnetization process and strong suppression of the coercive forces of Fe₇₀Co₃₀ in the hard magnetization direction. Soft magnetization of the Fe₇₀Co₃₀ overlayer is not achieved when one of the layers is deposited at oblique incidence. It is anticipated that shape magnetic anisotropy is responsible in part for the magnetic anisotropy induced in both in Fe₂₀Ni₈₀ under- and Fe₇₀Co₃₀ overlayer by oblique incidence evaporation.     

Solvothermal one-step synthesis of MWCNTs/Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 magnetic composites

A magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes-based (MWCNTs-based) composite, MWCNTs/Ni_0.5Zn_0.5Fe₂O₄, was synthesized via a facile solvothermal approach. The composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and vibrating sample magnetometry. The results confirmed that MWCNTs and Ni_0.5Zn_0.5Fe₂O₄ coexisted in the composites. The TEM and HRTEM results showed a thick layer of Ni_0.5Zn_0.5Fe₂O₄ was intimately connected to the surface of MWCNTs. The saturation magnetization value of the composites was 45.8 emu/g. Furthermore, the probable synthesis mechanism of the magnetic composites was also investigated based on the experimental results.     

Static and dynamic magnetic characteristics of BaCo0.5Mn0.5Ti1.0Fe10O19

The effect of Mn²⁺Co²⁺Ti⁴⁺ substitution on microwave absorption has been studied for BaCo_0.5Mn_0.5Ti_1.0Fe₁₀O₁₉ ferrite-acrylic resin composites in frequency range from 12 to 20 GHz. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), vibrating sample magnetometer, AC susceptometer and vector network analyzer were used to analyze the structural, magnetic and microwave absorption properties. The results showed that the magnetoplumbite structures for all samples have been formed. Based on microwave measurement on reflectivity, BaCo_0.5Mn_0.5Ti_1.0Fe₁₀O₁₉ may be a good candidate for electromagnetic compatibility and other practical applications at high frequency.
