OPTICAL, MAGNETO-OPTICAL AND RELATED PROPERTIES FOR Pt AND Co MULTI-LAYER STRUCTURES

Magneto-Optical properties of GaP single crystal

The temperature dependence of magneto-optical and magneto-photoconductivity measurements were carried out in the range of (200-330) K. A home made optical cryostat was used for the measurements. The measured room temperature value of the energy gap was found to be 2.211 eV. The temperature coefficient of energy gap was found to be -5.48×10-4 eV/K obtained by the optical absorption method and -4...

Magnetic and magneto-optical properties of sputtered Co/Pd multilayers

Co/Pd multilayer thin films consisting of Co layers between 2-25 ,~, and Pd layers of typically 14 A were prepared by rf sputtering. Hysteresis loops and the magnetization were measured parallel and perpendicular to the film plane. From these measurements and torque curves it was found that the muitilayers show a transition of the easy axis from an in-plane to a direction perpendicular to the f...

Novel (Pt/Co/Pt/Ni) multilayers for magneto-optical recording media

The sputter deposited ~Pt/Co/Pt/Ni! multilayer films were studied as possible alternative low Curie temperature multilayers for magneto-optical recording. The Curie temperatures of these multilayers were found to be between 150 and 300 °C, which are much lower than those of Co/Pt multilayers or ~Co,Ni!/Pt multilayers. The coercivities of these multilayers were between 450 and 800 Oe. The Kerr s...
