Sr₄Ru₃O₁₀ is a Ruddlesden-Popper compound with triple Ru-O perovskite layers separated by Sr-O rock-salt layers. This compound presents a rare coexistence of interlayer (c-axis) ferromagnetism and intralayer (basal-plane) metamagnetism at ambient pressure. Here we report the observation of pressure-induced, intralayer itinerant antiferromagnetism arising from the interlayer ferromagnetism. The application of modest hydrostatic pressure generates an anisotropy that may cause a flattening and a tilting of RuO₆ octahedra. All magnetic and transport results from this study indicate these lattice distortions diminish the c-axis ferromagnetism and basal-plane metamagnetism, and induce a basal-plane antiferromagnetic state. …

Surface And Interface Effects Of Magnetoimpedance Materials At High Frequency, Tatiana M. Eggers

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Amorphous and nanocrystalline transition metal magnetic alloys (TMMAs) have been the subjects of fundamental and applied study due to their unique structure. The lack of long-range order in these materials sets the stage for their soft magnetic properties to be tuned for a variety of technological applications, such as sensitive magnetic field sensors, high frequency transformers, and stress sensors. Fundamental investigation of the magnetic and structural properties of these materials is also motivated by their unique amorphous or nanocrystalline-embedded amorphous matrix morphology, which has consequences on both the magnetism seen from both the atomic and macro-scale. The surfaces of these …

Tailoring The Magnetic Anisotropy Of Cobalt-Gold Thin Films, Cengi̇z Okay, Peri̇han Aksu, Caner Deger, Fi̇kret Yildiz

Turkish Journal of Physics

Magnetic cobalt-gold thin films (Co$_{x}$Au$_{(1-x)})$ are grown on silicon (100) surfaces by using a sputter deposition technique. Magnetic anisotropy of the films is investigated by ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). Magnetic properties are explored by micromagnetic simulations based on the metropolis algorithm. Effective magnetic anisotropy is gradually increased with Co concentration. In-plane axial anisotropy exists for all samples and it is enhanced with a Co concentration of $\sim $40{\%}, corresponding optimal cluster size, and intercluster separation. Segregation and coalescence of Co clusters caused by different Co concentrations strongly affect magnetic properties of the thin films. Therefore, the study revealed that magnetic behavior …
