研究目的
Investigating the synthesis and magnetic properties of nanosized YIG films grown on GGG and NdGG substrates, and their potential applications in spintronic and magnonic devices.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that YIG films grown on GGG and NdGG substrates exhibit distinct magnetic properties, with NdGG substrates leading to films with lower effective magnetization and higher magnetic variability. The presence of Fe2+ ions is identified as a key factor in relaxation processes. The findings suggest potential for designing low-relaxation spin-wave devices with tailored magnetization profiles.
研究不足
The study is limited by the presence of Fe2+ ions in YIG films, which contribute to relaxation losses and affect the magnetic properties. The lateral inhomogeneity of YIG films on NdGG substrates also poses challenges for uniform device performance.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study involves the synthesis of YIG films using laser-molecular-beam epitaxy (LMBE) on GGG and NdGG substrates, followed by characterization using ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) and spin wave propagation techniques.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
YIG films were grown on GGG(111) and NdGG(111) substrates at temperatures ranging from 500 to 1000°C. The substrates were annealed before growth to ensure an atomically smooth surface.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
LMBE setup, KrF excimer laser (Lambda Physics COMPEX 201), X-ray diffraction equipment, atomic force microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometer, vector network analyzer (Rohde-Schwarz ZNB-20).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
YIG films were deposited in oxygen atmosphere using pulsed laser ablation. The films' magnetic properties were studied using FMR and spin wave propagation measurements at various temperatures.
5:Data Analysis Methods
FMR spectra were analyzed using Lorentzian fitting to determine peak positions and linewidths. Spin wave propagation data were analyzed to assess magnetic inhomogeneity and relaxation processes.
