Abstract
BaFe12O19 (BFO) thin films have been grown on Si(100) substrates by magnetron sputtering from previously synthesized ceramic BFO targets and have been compositionally and structurally characterized. Films grow with the c-axis orientation and magnetization direction parallel to the sample plane. In addition, the magnetic coupling between the BFO film and a deposited cobalt overlayer was studied. Images of X-ray magnetic circular dichroism in photoemission microscopy show magnetic regions in the BFO layer with domain sizes of several micrometers and others without magnetic contrast, the latter attributed to the presence of hematite. Magnetic domains in the Co overlayer show no significant correlations with those in the BFO film, pointing to a negligible magnetic coupling.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the Spanish Ceramic and Glass Society publishes scientific articles and communications describing original research and reviews relating to ceramic materials and glasses. The main interests are on novel generic science and technology establishing the relationships between synthesis, processing microstructure and properties of materials. Papers may deal with ceramics and glasses included in any of the conventional categories: structural, functional, traditional, composites and cultural heritage. The main objective of the Journal of the Spanish Ceramic and Glass Society is to sustain a high standard research quality by means of appropriate reviewing procedures.
