Studies of deposition order anomaly of exchange coupling in bilayers and trilayers of NiFe and CoO
(American Institute of Physics, 1997-04-15)
The temperature dependence of the exchange field and coercivity and the effect of deposition order have been studied in a series of bilayer (NiFe/CoO and CoO/NiFe) and trilayer (NiFe/CoO/NiFe) films. A profound difference ...
Dynamics of a vortex domain wall in a magnetic nanostrip: application of the collective-coordinate approach
(American Physical Society, 2008-10-01)
The motion of a vortex domain wall in a ferromagnetic strip of submicron width under the influence of an external magnetic field exhibits three distinct dynamical regimes. In a viscous regime at low fields the wall moves ...
Effects of carrier mobility and morphology in organic semiconductor spin valves
(American Institute of Physics, 2009-05-01)
We studied spin transport in four organic semiconductors (OSCs) with different electronic properties. Magnetoresistance (MR) effects were observed up to room temperature in junctions based on an electron-carrying OSC, ...
Longitudinal and perpendicular exchange bias in FeMn/(FeNi/FeMn)n multilayers
(American Institute of Physics, 2003-05-15)
Exchange bias in ferromagnetic (FM)/antiferromagnetic (AF) bilayers is usually investigated in the longitudinal configuration with the exchange coupling established in the film plane. In this work, we report on the ...
Dynamics of domain walls in magnetic nanostrips
(American Physical Society, 2008-03-28)
We express the dynamics of domain walls in ferromagnetic nanowires in terms of collective coordinates, generalizing Thiele[psila]s steady-state results. For weak external perturbations the dynamics is dominated by a few ...
Stripes in thin ferromagnetic films with out-of-plane anisotropy
(American Physical Society, 2007-05-01)
We examine the T=0 phase diagram of a thin ferromagnetic film with a strong out-of-plane anisotropy (e.g., Co/Pt multilayers) in the vicinity of the reorientation phase transition. The phase diagram in the anisotropy-applied-field ...
Comparison of surface spin wave modes at Fe/MnF2 and Fe/Mn interfaces
(American Institute of Physics, 2000-11-01)
We have studied the thermal demagnetization in semi-infinite ferromagnets in Fe/MnF2 and Fe/Mn bilayers using Mössbauer spectroscopy. We find that the hyperfine field at the Fe/MnF2 interface follows a quasilinear temperature ...
Magnetic properties of one-dimensional quasiperiodic Co/Pt multilayers
(American Institute of Physics, 2006-04-15)
We have fabricated Fibonacci [Co/Pt] multilayers with two constituent Co/Pt bilayers, as well as periodic multilayers of the same Co/Pt bilayers, all of which exhibit perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Magnetic properties ...
Exchange coupling between Cr and ferromagnetic thin films
(American Institute of Physics, 2003-05-15)
Exchange bias has been observed in Ni81Fe19/Cr bilayers. The exchange bias field for Cr thickness tCr larger than 62 Å increases with tCr and levels off at tCr=150 Å, whereas coercivity increases without saturation. The ...
Cell manipulation using magnetic nanowires
(American Institute of Physics, 2003-05-15)
The use of magnetic nanowires is demonstrated as a method for the application of force to mammalian cells. Magnetic separations were carried out on populations of NIH-3T3 mouse fibroblast cells using ferromagnetic Ni wires ...
