Abstract FeSi films with different substrate temperature (Ts) were deposited on MgO (001) substrates by a radio frequency magnetron sputtering. During the change of crystal structure from amorphous epitaxial state, magnetic anisotropy experienced three stages: dominant uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (Ts < 400 ℃) and enhanced cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy (400 ℃ £ Ts £ 600 ℃) and weak cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy (Ts = 700 ℃ and 800 ℃). In addition, resonance frequency ƒr firstly decreases, then reaches the maximum value, and finally disappears due to the large coercivity field. These results demonstrate the correlation between the structure, static, dynamic magnetic properties of FeSi films, and provide an effective method to prepare soft films with deterministic uniaxial or cubic magnetic anisotropy for practical application.

In Ba ferrite particles magnetocrystalline and shape anisotropies are contemporarily present and conflicting. The strength and evolution of the two anisotropies are studied, through the dependence of the anisotropy constants on temperature. While in pure Ba ferrite particles the anisotropy is uniaxial at all temperatures, since the magnetocrystalline anisotropy clearly prevails on shape anisotropy, in particles modified for employment in recording media the two anisotropies are comparable and at low temperatures the shape anisotropy result stronger than the crystalline anisotropy. Besides the irregular shape of the particles introduces further preferred directions for the magnetization. The Co/Ti-doped particles show a multiple axes anisotropy. The macroscopic magnetic properties are found in relationship with the evolution of the anisotropy. Also the influence that the presence of such multiple anisotropy has on the magnetization switching and on the thermal stability of the magnetization of the Ba ferrite particles is analyzed.

The magnetic properties of single-phase 2:17 compounds of the composition Sm2Fe17−xGaxHy were investigated. The substitution of Ga for Fe in the Sm2Fe17 compound resulted in a substantial increase in the Curie temperature and, for alloys with x > 2, the formation of a uniaxial magnetic anisotropy at room temperature. The diffusion of hydrogen into those compounds that exhibit an easy axis anisotropy causes a transition back to a planar anisotropy. This indicates that the presence of interstitial hydrogen is detrimental to the hard magnetic properties of these materials.

La1-xBaxCoO3single crystals were grown from KOH melt at 873 K under H2O/O2mixed gas flow. The grown crystals had a parallelepiped form with the edges of about 60 μm. Streaks indicating twin boundaries were observed on the surface planes of the crystals. The crystals showed magnetic anisotropy and anomalousMHhysteresis loops. The magnetocrystalline anisotropy and coupling of ferroelasticity and ferromagnetism were discussed based on the magnetic properties.

AbstractThree series of nanostructured, μm thick, Co/Ag composite thin films (13, 39 and 61 volume % Co) were produced by dc magnetron sputtering at various substrate temperatures (100–600°C) to determine their magnetic properties and characterize the microstructure. The films were found to be composed of finely dispersed Ag and Co particles. The film surfaces become rougher as the substrate temperature was increased. The crystal lattice structure of the Co was found to be fcc except at the lower substrate temperatures (<300°C) in the 61 volume % films where it was found to be a mixture of fcc and some hcp. The average diffracting particle size of both the Co and Ag rich phases increase with substrate temperature. The magnetic coercivity of the films reached a maximum value when the Co particle size was between 100–150Å.

The usual expression for the magnetocrystalline anisotropy is rewritten for the magnetization referred to the easy axes of the f.c.c. lattice. It is suggested that distortion due to planar film strain produces easy directions different from the [Formula: see text] crystallographic directions and results in the appearance of a large uniaxial anisotropy, Ku, superimposed upon the expected magnetocrystalline anisotropy. A strain of 1 × 10−4 in nickel is considered and is shown to produce a Ku of the order of 105 erg cm−3, comparable with that measured experimentally on electrodeposited (110) single-crystal nickel thin films.

The choice and configuration of the ferroelectric (FE) substrate and the ferromagnetic (FM) layer in FM/FE heterostructures play an important role in magnetism modification with regard to amplitude and efficiency. In this study, we fabricated FeSi films on low crystalline (011) [Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3]0.7-[PbTiO3]0.3 (PMN-0.32PT) using radio frequency magnetron sputtering. In the annealed FeSi/(011) PMN-0.32PT heterostructures, the FeSi film presented with a (011) preferred orientated polycrystalline structure and low magnetocrystalline anisotropy. Both loop-like and butterfly-like magnetism modifications were observed by applying bipolar electric fields, and the weak and abnormal electrically mediated magnetism behaviors were significantly different from the prominent magnetic anisotropy transition in FeSi/(011) PMN-0.3PT. The comparative analyses suggest that the resulting high-quality single-crystalline PMN-xPT and FM films with low coercivity are of great significance for exploring giant, reversible, and non-volatile magnetism regulation.

Abstract The anomalous Nernst effect in nanostructured magnetic materials is a key phenomenon to optimally control and employ the internal energy dissipated in electronic devices, being dependent on, for instance, the magnetic anisotropy of the active element. Thereby, here, we report a theoretical and experimental investigation of the magnetic properties and anomalous Nernst effect in a flexible magnetostrictive film with induced uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and under external stress. Specifically, we calculate the magnetization behavior and the thermoelectric voltage response from a theoretical approach for a planar geometry, with magnetic free energy density that takes into account the induced uniaxial and magnetoelastic anisotropy contributions. Experimentally, we verify modifications of the effective magnetic anisotropy by changing the external stress, and explore the anomalous Nernst effect, a powerful tool to investigate the magnetic properties of magnetostrictive materials. We find quantitative agreement between experiment and numerical calculations, thus elucidating the magnetic behavior and thermoelectric voltage response. Besides, we provide evidence to confirm the validity of the theoretical approach to describe the magnetic properties and anomalous Nernst effect in ferromagnetic magnetostrictive films having uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and submitted to external stress. Hence, the results place flexible magnetostrictive systems as promising candidates for active elements in functionalized touch electronic devices.
