Magneto-Optic Properties Of Ultrathin Nanocrystalline Ferrite Garnet Films In The 8k To 300k Temperature Interval, Viatcheslav Kotov, Vladimir Shavrov, A. Popkov, Mikhail Vasiliev, Kamal Alameh, Mohammad Alam, L. Alyabyeva, Dmitry Balabanov, Vladimir Burkov, M Virchenko

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

A study of the initial stages of crystallization in RF magnetron-sputtered ferrite garnet films is reported, in which a series of ultrathin Bi2Dy1Fe4Ga1O12 layers is fabricated and characterized. The spectral and temperature dependencies of magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) of these films are studied in the temperature range from 300 K down to 8 K. Measured magneto-optical properties are reported in the spectral range between 300 and 600 nm. In ultrathin garnets at temperatures below 160 K, we found that between 360 and 520 nm, the spectral MCD dependencies were typical of bismuth-substituted garnets with high levels of gallium dilution in …

Tunable Optical Nanocavity Of Iron-Garnet With A Buried Metal Layer, Alexey N. Kuz'michev, Lars E. Kreilkamp, Mohammed Nur-E-Alam, Evgeni Bezus, Mikhail Vasilev, Iliya A. Akimov, Kamal Alameh, Manfred Bayer, Vladimir I. Belotelov

Research outputs 2014 to 2021

We report on the fabrication and characterization of a novel magnetophotonic structure designed as iron garnet based magneto-optical nanoresonator cavity constrained by two noble metal mirrors. Since the iron garnet layer requires annealing at high temperatures, the fabrication process can be rather challenging. Special approaches for the protection of metal layers against oxidation and morphological changes along with a special plasma-assisted polishing of the iron garnet layer surface were used to achieve a 10-fold enhancement of the Faraday rotation angle (up to 10.8°=μm) within a special resonance peak of 12 nm (FWHM) linewidth at a wavelength of 772 nm, in …
