Abstract: | Antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic (AF/F) NiMn/Fe37Co48Hf15 films were investigated with respect to their exchange bias, in-plane unidirectional anisotropy, polarisation and high frequency behaviour. After deposition, carried out by r.f. magnetron sputtering, the films were post-annealed for 4 h at 300 °C in a static magnetic field, in order to induce exchange-bias, which results in a unidirectional anisotropy. Dependent on the presence of a bi-layer or multi-layer sandwich structure the films show a different exchange-bias field-ferromagnetic inter-layer thickness behaviour with exchange-bias fields μ0?Heb between 2 and 10 mT. The in-plane uniaxial (single film) or unidirectional anisotropy fields μ0*HUF were between 4 and 18 mT. This results in a significant increase of the cut-off frequency in the GHz range in comparison to a single Fe37Co48Hf15 film, which is shown by frequency-dependent permeability plots. High damping in the imaginary part of the permeability, i.e., high resonance line broadening could be observed for films with high coercivity μ0*Hc of around 7 mT in the easy axis of magnetisation. |
