Coupled stochastic dynamics of magnetic moment and anisotropy axis of a magnetic nanoparticle
2012
An algorithm is developed for numerical simulation of coupled stochastic dynamics of magnetic moment and magnetic anisotropy axis of a nanoparticle. Time-correlation functions of the magnetic moment and its components longitudinal and transverse to the magnetic anisotropy axis are calculated by averaging along the stochastic trajectory. The longitudinal and transverse relaxation times are found by fitting the time correlation functions. Existing theoretical relations derived by the effective field approach in the limit of small fields are confirmed. The time-correlation functions of magnetic moments of nanoparticles in dependence on their properties are calculated numerically for arbitrary …
Spin orbit torque switching in Ta/CoFeB/MgO without longitudinal fields
2015
Intense investigations are carried out on novel magnetic materials systems with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), where new spin-orbit effects occur due to structural inversion asymmetry (SIA). So called spin-orbit torques (SOTs), have been observed for the first time in PMA nano-structures with SIA, when an electric current is injected [1-3], leading to ultra-efficient current-induced domain wall motion and current-induced magnetization switching [2,3].
Antiferromagnetic Insulatronics: spintronics without magnetic fields
2021
While known for a long time, antiferromagnetically ordered systems have previously been considered, as expressed by Louis Neel in his Nobel Prize Lecture, to be “interesting but useless”. However, since antiferromagnets potentially promises faster operation, enhanced stability with respect to interfering magnetic fields and higher integration due to the absence of dipolar coupling, they could potentially become a game changer for new spintronic devices. The zero net moment makes manipulation using conventional magnetic fields challenging. However recently, these materials have received renewed attention due to possible manipulation based on new approaches such as photons or spin-orbit torqu…
Magnetic resonance study of bulk and thin film EuTiO3
2017
Magnetic resonance spectra of EuTiO3 in both bulk and thin film form were taken at temperatures from 3-350 K and microwave frequencies from 9.2-9.8 and 34 GHz. In the paramagnetic phase, magnetic resonance spectra are determined by magnetic dipole and exchange interactions between Eu2+ spins. In the film, a large contribution arises from the demagnetization field. From detailed analysis of the linewidth and its temperature dependence, the parameters of spin-spin interactions were determined: the exchange frequency is 15-15.5 GHz and the estimated critical exponent of the spin correlation length is ~ 0.5. In the bulk samples, the spectra exhibited a distinct minimum in the linewidth at the N…
Magnetic Anisotropies and Coupling Mechanisms inFe/Mo(110)Nanostripes
2005
Using low-temperature (5 K) spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy, we have studied the morphology and magnetic properties of monolayer (ML) and double layer (DL) thick Fe nanowires grown by step flow on a Mo(110) single crystal. Magnetic contrast has been obtained using tungsten tips covered by Au/Co thin films. We find that the DL Fe nanowires, similarly to ML Fe nanowires, are perpendicularly magnetized. Because of the dipolar coupling, separated DL Fe nanowires are antiferromagnetically coupled. DL wires that are touching at step edges are ferromagnetically ordered due to direct exchange coupling. We measured the widths of the magnetic domain walls in the ML and DL Fe nanowires. T…
Polarized neutron reflectivity from monolayers of self-assembled magnetic nanoparticles
2015
We prepared monolayers of iron oxide nanoparticles via self-assembly on a bare silicon wafer and on a vanadium film sputter deposited onto a plane sapphire substrate. The magnetic configuration of nanoparticles in such a dense assembly was investigated by polarized neutron reflectivity. A theoretical model fit shows that the magnetic moments of nanoparticles form quasi domain-like configurations at remanence. This is attributed to the dipolar coupling amongst the nanoparticles.
Laser and radiofrequency spectroscopy of the 5d 4 6s 6 D multiplet in Ta I
1993
The hyperfine structure (hfs) of181Ta has been investigated using laser radio-frequency double resonance and high resolution laser spectroscopy on collimated atomic beams. The magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole hyperfine structure coupling constants of the 5d46s 6D3/2, 5/2, 7/2, 9/2 metastable states have been determined using radio-frequency spectroscopy. In the 5d4 6s6D1/2 metastable state and the excited 5d3 6s 6p4D3/2,6D5/2, 9/2 as well as the unidentified 28 182.6 cm−1 and 30 021.2 cm−1 states, hfs constants have been obtained from high resolution laser spectroscopy. A radio-frequency converter has been developed in order to reach the frequency region 2.7–10 GHz.
Two hybrid organometallic-inorganic layered magnets from the series [ ZIIICp*2] [ MIIMIII(ox)3] studied with μ+SR
2004
We present zero-field muon spin relaxation (ZF-μ + SR) measurements on two examples of a new series of hybrid organometallic-inorganic layered magnets, namely ferromagnetic [FeCp* 2 ][MnCr(ox) 3 ] and ferrimagnetic [CoCp* 2 ][FeFe(ox) 3 ] (where ox = oxalate and Cp* = pentame- thyl-cyclopentadienyl). Both materials show multi-component muon spin precession signals characteristic of quasistatic magnetic fields at several distinct muon sites. The temperature dependence of the precession frequencies allow critical exponents to be extracted. Possible muon sites are discussed on the basis of dipole field calculations.
Nuclear moments and laser spectroscopy
1990
Laser spectroscopy measurements have yielded a wealth of new information about the moments and charge radii of unstable isotopes. The procedures of evaluating these moments from the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole terms of the hyperfine structure arew discussed. Examples are presented, with emphasis on the isotopic chains of odd-proton nuclei, and their essential features are put into the context of current theoretical model descriptions for spherical and deformed nuclei. Finally, new developments of extremely sensitive experimental techniques are discussed with regard to an application to nuclei very far from stability.
Muon Anomaly from Lepton Vacuum Polarization and The Mellin--Barnes Representation
2008
We evaluate, analytically, a specific class of eighth--order and tenth--order QED contributions to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. They are generated by Feynman diagrams involving lowest order vacuum polarization insertions of leptons $l=e,\mu$, and $\tau$. The results are given in the form of analytic expansions in terms of the mass ratios $m_e/m_\mu$ and $m_\mu/m_\tau$. We compute as many terms as required by the error induced by the present experimental uncertainty on the lepton masses. We show how the Mellin--Barnes integral representation of Feynman parametric integrals allows for an easy analytic evaluation of as many terms as wanted in these expansions and how its underlyi…
