Permalloy (Py:Ni81Fe19) exhibits an anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) which is very often used to read magnetic signals from storage devices. Py-films of thickness 20nm were prepared by dc-magnetron sputtering in a magnetic field onto thermally oxidized Si-wafers and annealed ex situ at temperatures up to 1000K in order to investigate the dependence of the magnetic anisotropy and the AMR on heat treatments. The films exhibit an uniaxial anisotropy after preparation which changes during annealing above 520K. The AMR along the former magnetically easy axis as well as the corresponding field sensitivity are increased by a heat treatment around 700K reaching maxima of about 8% and a maximum sensitivity of 1.5%/Oe, respectively. We discuss possible sources for the change in anisotropy, i.e. strain effects, inhomogeneities, and changes of the local atomic order.
Tilted off-plane magnetic anisotropy induces two unusual characteristic magnetotransport phenomena: extraordinary Hall effect in the presence of an in-plane magnetic field, and non-monotonic anisotropic magnetoresistance in the presence of a field no
We report on the magnetic properties of zinc ferrite thin film deposited on SrTiO$_3$ single crystal using pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction result indicates the highly oriented single phase growth of the film along with the presence of the
The dependence of the magnetic anisotropy of As-capped (Ga,Mn)As epilayers on the annealing parameters - temperature and time - has been investigated. A uniaxial magnetic anisotropy is evidenced, whose orientation with respect to the crystallographic
We investigated the magnetic anisotropy ratio of thin sputtered polycrystalline MgB2 films on MgO substrates. Using high magnetic field measurements, we estimated an anisotropy ratio of 1.35 for T=0 K with an upper critical field of 31.74 T in the pa
We report measurements on yttrium iron garnet (YIG) thin films grown on both gadolinium gallium garnet (GGG) and yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG) substrates, with and without thin Pt top layers. We provide three principal results: the observation of an
