X-ray resonant magnetic scattering from FePd thin films

Depending on the growth conditions, FePd thin films can display a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy associated with chemical order. In competition with the shape anisotropy, this can lead to striped magnetic domains, with moments perpendicular to the film plane. Under these circumstances, magnetic flux closure should occur. The striped domains were studied with soft x-ray resonant magnetic scat...

Influence of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy on closure domains studied with x-ray resonant magnetic scattering

FePd thin-film samples with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy ~PMA! have been studied with x-ray resonant magnetic scattering, both at the Fe and at the Pd L3 edges. In these samples the competition between PMA and shape anisotropy leads to the formation of highly ordered striped domain patterns with a magnetization component perpendicular to the film plane. These striped domains give rise to m...

Soft X-ray resonant magnetic scattering from a Ni layer with modulated magnetic anisotropy.

Soft X-ray resonant magnetic scattering studies on a magnetically modulated, but nominally chemically homogenous, 5 nm Ni layer in a Cu/Ni/Cu/Co/NiO/GaAs(110) system are reported. It was possible to estimate the main chemical structure of the sample on the basis of the results from specular reflectivity and rocking scans, probing the scattering vector components in the perpendicular and in-plan...
