Vertical magnetization shift (VMS) is a special type of exchange bias effect that may lead to a revolution in future ultrahigh-density magnetic recording technology. However, there are very few reports focusing on the performance of VMS due to the unclear mechanism. In this paper, a giant vertical magnetization shift (ME) of 6.34 emu/g is reported in the Ni50Mn36Ga14 alloy. The VMS can be attributed to small ferromagnetic ordered regions formed by spin reconfiguration after field cooling, which are embedded in an antiferromagnetic matrix. The strong cooling-field dependence, temperature dependence, and training effect all corroborate the presence of spin reconfiguration and its role in the VMS. This work can enrich VMS research and increase its potential in practical applications as well.

ABSTRACTExchange bias and training effect are simulated for IrMn/NiFe bilayers. As a function of the thickness of the antiferromagnet the bias field shows a maximum for a thickness of 22 nm. For decreasing antiferromagnetic thickness the domain wall energy approaches zero. For large thicknesses the high anisotropy energy hinders switching of the antiferromagnetic grains resulting in weak bias. Starting from the field cooled state as initial configuration a bias field of about 8 mT is obtained assuming a antiferromagnetic layer thickness of 20 nm, a ferromagnetic layer thickness of 10 nm, and a grain size of 10 nm. The next hysteresis cycle shows a reduction of the bias field by about 65%. Exchange bias and training effect in fully compensated antiferromagnet/ferromagnet bilayers are explained with a simple micromagnetic model. The model assumes no defects except for grain boundaries, and coupling is due to spin flop at a perfect interface. The simulations show that a weak exchange interaction between randomly oriented antiferromagnetic grains and spin flop coupling at a perfectly compensated interface are sufficient to support exchange bias.

AbstractExchange bias properties of MnFe$$_2$$ 2 O$$_4$$ 4 @$$\gamma$$ γ –Fe$$_2$$ 2 O$$_3$$ 3 core–shell nanoparticles are investigated. The measured field and temperature dependencies of the magnetization point out a well-ordered ferrimagnetic core surrounded by a layer with spin glass-like arrangement. Quasi-static SQUID magnetization measurements are presented along with high-amplitude pulse ones and are cross-analyzed by comparison against ferromagnetic resonance experiments at 9 GHz. These measurements allow one to discern three types of magnetic anisotropies affecting the dynamics of the magnetic moment of the well-ordered ferrimagnetic NP’s core viz. the easy-axis (uniaxial) anisotropy, the unidirectional exchange-bias anisotropy and the rotatable anisotropy. The uniaxial anisotropy originates from the structural core–shell interface. The unidirectional exchange-bias anisotropy is associated with the spin-coupling at the ferrimagnetic/spin glass-like interface; it is observable only at low temperatures after a field-cooling process. The rotatable anisotropy is caused by partially-pinned spins at the core/shell interface; it manifests itself as an intrinsic field always parallel to the external applied magnetic field. The whole set of experimental results is interpreted in the framework of superparamagnetic theory, i.e., essentially taking into account the effect of thermal fluctuations on the magnetic moment of the particle core. In particular, it is found that the rotatable anisotropy of our system is of a uniaxial type.
