Abstract: | In this paper Barkhausen noise spectra are shown that were measured on thin uniaxial 83-17 Ni?Fe films and these spectra were compared with the known magnetic behaviour of these films. On these types of sample the Barkhausen effect had been investigated by Lambeck [1], but their Barkhausen noise spectra have not been investigated so far. The film thicknessd m in our experiments ranged between 400 and 2400 Å. In this range a change occurs in the dynamics of the magnetization behaviour caused by transitions of the type of domain wall. The results presented here show the very strong dependence of the Barkhausen noise spectra on the type of domain wall. Films with Bloch walls always show a frequency dependence off ?1.7 in the higher frequency range. Samples in the thickness range where the transition occurs from the Néel wall via the cross-tie wall to the Bloch wall, have exponents between ?1 and ?2. The frequencyf c above which the measured noise intensity begins to decrease varies very much for the different films. The curve off c versus film thicknessd m has the same form as the curve of the domain wall mobilitym versusd m. |
