RuMnAl thin films

K. E. Siewierska, H. Kurt, B. Shortall +7

The cubic Heusler alloy RuMnAl is grown in thin film form on MgO and MgAlO substrates. It is a highly spin-polarised ferrimagnetic metal, with weak magnetoc…

Single-pulse all-optical switching in amorphous DyCo and TbCo

Zexiang Hu, Jean Besbas, Ross Smith +5

Repeated uniform switching of the magnetization of thin films of ferrimagnetic amorphous Gd(FeCo) in response to single fast laser pulses is well established. Here we…

Magnetic reversal and pinning in a perpendicular zero moment half-metal

Niclas Teichert, Gwenael Atcheson, Katarzyna Siewierska +6

Compensated ferrimagnets are promising materials for fast spintronic applications based on domain wall motion as they combine the favourable properties of ferromagnets and antiferr…

Helium Ion Microscopy for Reduced Spin Orbit Torque Switching Currents

Peter Dunne, Ciaran Fowley, Gregor Hlawacek +11

Spin orbit torque driven switching is a favourable way to manipulate nanoscale magnetic objects for both memory and wireless communication devices. The critical current required to…

Single pulse all-optical toggle switching of magnetization without Gd: The example of Mn2RuxGa

C. Banerjee, N. Teichert, K. Siewierska +6

Energy-efficient control of magnetization without the help of a magnetic field is a key goal of spintronics. Purely heat-induced single-pulse all-optical toggle switching has been…

Imaging Domains in a Zero-Moment Half Metal

K. E. Siewierska, N. Teichert, R. Schäfer +1

We have a choice of methods for examining domains at the surface of a ferromagnet that depend on probing the stray field distribution, but these methods do not work in antiferromag…
