ABSTRACTAnnealing of CoAV(110) ultrathin films causes rather strong changes of film morphology and magnetic properties, which has been studied by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and alternating-current magneto-optical Kerr effect (ac-MOKE). Annealing above 500 K of room-temperature grown 2 monolayers (ML) thick Co/W(110) films leads to the formation of islands and a decrease of the Curie temperature 7C. At 4 ML, on the other hand, a network of interconnected islands is formed upon annealing, resulting in an enhanced TC. While the increase of TC at 4 ML is explained by an increase of the local film thickness, the anomalous TC behavior at 2 ML is assigned to the occurrence of superparamagnetism.

Asymmetric magnetic hysteresis loops are usually found in exchange bias (EB) systems, typically after field cooling a system below the Néel temperature of an antiferromagnet exchange coupled to a ferromagnet. Alternatively, asymmetric hysteresis loops may occur due to undetected minor loops or in systems with a rotational anisotropy. Here, we report on an exchange bias thin film system MgO(100)/Co/CoO, examined at room temperature, which is far above the blocking temperature, by the magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE). While the longitudinal hysteresis loops partly show steps which are well-known from diverse purely ferromagnetic systems, the transverse hysteresis loops exhibit clear asymmetries, similar to exchange biased systems at low temperatures, and unusual transverse magnetization values at saturation. Since minor loops and a rotational anisotropy can be excluded in this case, this asymmetry can possibly be a residue of the exchange bias coupling at lower temperatures.
