Mastering disorder in a first-order transition by ion irradiation
S. Cervera, M. LoBue, E. Fontana +10
The effect of ion bombardment on MnAs single crystalline thin films is studied. The role of elastic collisions between ions and atoms of the material is singled-out as the main pro…
Fast atom diffraction inside a molecular beam epitaxy chamber, a rich combination
M. Debiossac, P. Atkinson, A. Zugarramurdi +7
Two aspects of the contribution of grazing incidence fast atom diffraction (GIFAD) to molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are reviewed here: the ability of GIFAD to provide \emph{in-situ}…
Hints on the origin of the thermal hysteresis suppression in giant magnetocaloric thin films irradiatied with highly charged ions
S Cervera, M Trassinelli, M Marangolo +13
In a recent experiment we demonstrated the possibility to suppress the thermal hysteresis of the phase transition in giant magnetocaloric MnAs thin film by interaction with slow hi…
Suppression of the thermal hysteresis in magnetocaloric MnAs thin film by highly charged ion bombardment
Martino Trassinelli, Massimiliano Marangolo, M. Eddrief +10
We present the investigation on the modifications of structural and magnetic properties of MnAs thin film epitaxially grown on GaAs induced by slow highly charged ions bombardment…
Magnetic properties changes of MnAs thin films irradiated with highly charged ions
Martino Trassinelli, V. Gafton, M. Eddrief +12
We present the first investigation on the effect of highly charged ion bombardment on a manganese arsenide thin film. The MnAs films, 150 nm thick, are irradiated with 90 keV Ne$^{…
Imaging the antiparallel magnetic alignment of adjacent Fe and MnAs thin films
R. Breitwieser, M. Marangolo, J. Luning +5
The magnetic coupling between iron and alpha - MnAs in the epitaxial system Fe/MnAs/GaAs(001) has been studied at the sub-micron scale, using element selective x-ray photoemission…
