Thickness dependence of linear and quadratic magneto-optical Kerr effect in ultrathin Fe(001) films
M. Buchmeier, R. Schreiber, D. E. Bürgler +1
Magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) magnetometry is one of the most widely employed techniques for the characterization of ferromagnetic thin-film samples. Some information, such as…
Ultrafast dynamics of a magnetic antivortex - Micromagnetic simulations
Sebastian Gliga, Ming Yan, Riccardo Hertel +1
The antivortex is a fundamental magnetization structure which is the topological counterpart of the well-known magnetic vortex. We study here the ultrafast dynamic behavior of an i…
Current-induced magnetic vortex core switching in a Permalloy nanodisk
Y. Liu, S. Gliga, R. Hertel +1
We report on the switching of a magnetic vortex core in a sub-micron Permalloy disk, induced by a short current pulse applied in the film plane. Micromagnetic simulations including…
Nanomagnetic toggle switching of vortex cores on the picosecond time scale
R. Hertel, S. Gliga, M. Fähnle +1
We present an ultrafast route for a controlled, toggle switching of magnetic vortex cores with ultrashort unipolar magnetic field pulses. The switching process is found to be large…
Single-crystalline nanopillars for spin-transfer measurements
H. Dassow, R. Lehndorff, D. E. Buergler +4
We report on current-induced magnetization switching (CIMS) in single- crystalline nanopillars. Fe(14 nm)/Cr(0.9 nm)/Fe(10 nm)/Ag(6 nm)/Fe(2 nm) multilayers are deposited by molecu…
Structural and magneto-transport characterization of Co_2Cr_xFe_(1-x)Al Heusler alloy films
A. D. Rata, H. Braak, D. E. Buergler +2
We investigate the structure and magneto-transport properties of thin films of the Co_2Cr_xFe_(1-x)Al full-Heusler compound, which is predicted to be a half-metal by first-principl…
