Co/Pd magnetic multilayers have been prepared by using a sputtering method. Lattice distances and magnetic hysteresis curves have been measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements and magnetization measurements using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The XRD measurements have shown that the samples with thinner Pd layers have shorter lattice distances, and the VSM measurements have shown that the samples of thinner Co and thicker Pd layers are closer to those of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. We have applied the X-ray magnetic diffraction method to the Co/Pd multilayer for the first time and have succeeded in observing a change in the X-ray diffraction intensities by the reversal of the magnetization direction.

Single crystals of Na0.44MnO2 (=Na4Mn9O18) have been synthesized by a flux method at 1173 K for the first time. The crystal structure of Na0.44MnO2 has been refined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The framework structure consists of double and triple rutile-type chains of edge-sharing MnO6 octahedra and a single chain of edge-sharing MnO5. The Mn-O bond distance and bond valence analyses revealed the manganese valence Mn3+/Mn4+ ordering in the Na0.44MnO2 structure.

M-type hexaferrites Ba(ZnZr)xFe12-2xO19 (x=0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5) powders, have been synthesized by molten salt method, where x varies from 0 to 1.5 in steps of 0.5. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM) were used to analyze the structures and magnetic properties. The results showed that, the magnetoplumbite structures for all samples calcining at 1100°C have been formed. The magnetic hysteresis loop measurements of the hexagonal ferrites powders showed that the saturation magnetization (Ms), the remanent magnetization (Mr), and the coercitivity (Hc) of ferrites depend strongly on the chemical compositions of materials. The data showed that the max Hc was obtained when substitution of x=1.0 (Hc=63.9 Oe), while the best Ms was obtained when substitution of x=0.5 (Ms=54.02 emu/g). Zn and Zr substitutions greatly modified the magnetic properties of BaM hexaferrite.

ABSTRACTThe magnetic properties of sputtered Pd/Co multilaysers in hydrogen atmospheres were studied. The x-ray diffraction(XRD) patterns in hydrogen atmospheres showed that the lattice expansion of hydrogenated Pd decreased with decreasing thickness of Pd layers, which is reminiscent of nano-crystalline Pd. Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy(PMA) and saturation magnetization were reduced by the hydrogénation. The interface anisotropy energy per unit area, Ks, and volume anisotropy energy per unit volume, Kv are discussed. These results suggest that interface magnetic anisotropy between Pd and Co layers is suppressed by hydrogenation.

Cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) thin films have been prepared on Si (001) substrates, with different calcined temperatures (Tcal=400°C~800°C). The films structure was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and their surface was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The magnetic properties were measured with a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). For low calcined temperatures, the films presented a mixture of a CoFe2O4phase, with the cubic spinel structure, and cobalt and iron antiferromagnet oxides with CoO and FeO stoichiometries. As the calcined temperature increased, the CoO and FeO relative content strongly decreased, so that for Tcal=800°Cthe films were composed mainly by polycrystalline CoFe2O4. The magnetic hysteresis cycles measured in the films were horizontally shifted due to an exchange coupling field originated by the presence of the antiferromagnetic phases.

Mn-Zn ferrites doped with Cr3+ were prepared by “one-step synthesis” and conventional two-step synthesis methods, respectively. Their phase compositions and microstructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. And their magnetic magnetic performance, such as saturation magnetization (Ms), magnetic hysteresis, initial permeability μi and power loss were comparatively investigated by vibrating sample magnetometer. It was observed that the difference of magnetic performance of the samples prepared by both methods is little. The similar performance of both methods makes the “one-step synthesis” especially attractive for application when considering energy economization.

ABSTRACTTb03.Dy0.7Fe2 (known as Terfenol-D) thin films have been epitaxially grown for the first time with [110] as the growth direction. X-Ray diffraction measurements evidence that the films are strained compared to the bulk alloy. Mössbauer spectroscopy and Kerr rotation measurements show that the easy magnetization direction varies from <116> at 4.2 K to around <133> at 300 K. This variation is different from the bulk case (for which the magnetization is along <100> at 4.2 K and along <111> at room temperature). This effect can be qualitatively understood if we consider the influence of the strains induced by epitaxy on the various energy terms which govern the direction of magnetization.

A series of Ta(4 nm)/Y2O[Formula: see text]/Ni[Formula: see text]Fe[Formula: see text](20 nm)/Y2O[Formula: see text]/Ta(3 nm) films were prepared on glass substrates by magnetron sputtering under appropriate conditions. AMR value, phase composition and magnetic hysteresis hoop of Ni[Formula: see text]Fe[Formula: see text] films were measured and analyzed by four-point probe technology, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), respectively. Influence of Y2O3 which work as oxidation intercalation on AMR values of Ni[Formula: see text]Fe[Formula: see text] films was investigated. The experiment results show that, at the substrate temperature of 450[Formula: see text]C, the AMR value of the film with Y2O3 layer thickness of 2.5 nm can reach 4.61%, increasing by 71.3% compares with the film without Y2O3 layer.

The magnetostrictive Pr(Fe0.4Co0.6)1.93alloy with MgCu2-type structure, and its 0-3 and pseudo 1-3 type epoxy-bonded composites were fabricated by curing without and with a magnetic field. The structural, magnetic and magnetoelastic properties were investigated by means of x-ray diffraction, a vibrating sample magnetometer and a standard strain technique. The 0-3 type composite has a larger magnetostriction than the 1-3 composite has, which can be ascribed to the easy magnetization direction (EMD) not lying along direction.
