  • Localized Ferromagnetic Resonance Using Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy
    LOCALIZED FERROMAGNETIC RESONANCE USING MAGNETIC RESONANCE FORCE MICROSCOPY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Ful¯llment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jongjoo Kim, B.S.,M.S. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by P.C. Hammel, Adviser D. Stroud Adviser F. Yang Graduate Program in K. Honscheid Physics ABSTRACT Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM) is a novel approach to scanned probe imaging, combining the advantages of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) with Scanning Probe Microscopy (SPM) [1]. It has extremely high sensitivity that has demonstrated detection of individual electron spins [2] and small numbers of nuclear spins [3]. Here we describe our MRFM experiments on Ferromagnetic thin ¯lm structures. Unlike ESR and NMR, Ferromagnetic Resonance (FMR) is de¯ned not only by local probe ¯eld and the sample structures, but also by strong spin-spin dipole and exchange interactions in the sample. Thus, imaging and spatially localized study using FMR requires an entirely new approach. In MRFM, a probe magnet is used to detect the force response from the sample magnetization and it provides local magnetic ¯eld gradient that enables mapping of spatial location into resonance ¯eld. The probe ¯eld influences on the FMR modes in a sample, thus enabling local measurements of properties of ferromagnets. When su±ciently intense, the inhomogeneous probe ¯eld de¯nes the region in which FMR modes are stable, thus producing localized modes. This feature enables FMRFM to be important tool for the local study of continuous ferromagnetic samples and structures.

  • Hybrid Perfect Metamaterial Absorber for Microwave Spin Rectification
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Hybrid perfect metamaterial absorber for microwave spin rectifcation applications Jie Qian1,2, Peng Gou1, Hong Pan1, Liping Zhu1, Y. S. Gui2, C.‑M. Hu2 & Zhenghua An1,3,4* Metamaterials provide compelling capabilities to manipulate electromagnetic waves beyond the natural materials and can dramatically enhance both their electric and magnetic felds. The enhanced magnetic felds, however, are far less utilized than the electric counterparts, despite their great potential in spintronics. In this work, we propose and experimentally demonstrate a hybrid perfect metamaterial absorbers which combine the artifcial metal/insulator/metal (MIM) metamaterial with the natural ferromagnetic material permalloy (Py) and realize remarkably larger spin rectifcation efect. Magnetic hot spot of the MIM metamaterial improves considerably electromagnetic coupling with spins in the embedded Py stripes. With the whole hybridized structure being optimized based on coupled‑mode theory, perfect absorption condition is approached and an approximately 190‑fold enhancement of spin‑rectifying photovoltage is experimentally demonstrated at the ferromagnetic resonance at 7.1 GHz. Our work provides an innovative solution to harvest microwave energy for spintronic applications, and opens the door to hybridized magnetism from artifcial and natural magnetic materials for emergent applications such as efcient optospintronics, magnonic metamaterials and wireless energy transfer. Metamaterials ofer a great avenue to control the absorption,

  • Instrumentation for Ferromagnetic Resonance Spectrometer
    Chapter 2 Instrumentation for Ferromagnetic Resonance Spectrometer Chi-Kuen Lo Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/56069 1. Introduction Even FMR is an antique technique, it is still regarded as a powerful probe for one of the modern sciences, the spintronics. Since materials used for spintronics are either ferromagnetic or spin correlated, and FMR is not only employed to study their magneto static behaviors, for instances, anisotropies [1,2], exchange coupling [3,4,5,6], but also the spin dynamics; such as the damping constant [7,8,9], g factor [8,9], spin relaxation [9], etc. In this chapter a brief description about the key components and techniques of FMR will be given. For those who have already owned a commercial FMR spectrometer could find very helpful and detail information of their system from the instruction and operation manuals. The purpose of this text is for the one who want to understand a little more detail about commercial system, and for researchers who want to build their own spectrometers based on vector network analyzer (VNA) would gain useful information as well. FMR spectrometer is a tool to record electromagnetic (EM) wave absorbed by sample of interest under the influence of external DC or Quasi DC magnetic field. Simply speaking, the spectrometer should consist of at least an EM wave excitation source, detector, and transmission line which bridges sample and EM source. The precession frequency of ferromagnetics lies at the regime of microwave (-wave) ranged from 0.1 to about 100 GHz, therefore, FMR absorption occurs at -wave range.

  • Chapter 1 Magnetism and Magnetic Resonance
    Chapter 1 Magnetism and Magnetic Resonance The Bell System's interest in magnetic materials dates back to the very beginning of the telephone. It was recognized early that understanding the physics of magnetism would be crucial to progress in the technology using magnetic materials-whether for finding magnetic metals or allays having high permeability or low ac lass for transformers and loading coils, or for designing permanent magnets with large remanent magnetization. The research activities an ferromagnetic metals and alloys, an the physics of mag­ netic domains, and on magnetic oxides-ferrites and garnets-extended the application of magnetic devices to the higher frequencies needed for larger carrier capacity. The techniques of magnetic resonance were introduced in solid state physics in the mid-1940s. They probe the internal fields of magnetic materials on the atomic level and deepen our understanding of the fundamentals of magnetism-the interaction between elemental atomic magnets and the much weaker nuclear magnetic moments. The techniques of Miissbauer spectros­ copy make use of the very narrow gamma rays emitted by the nuclei of cer­ tain magnetic materials and provide complementary information an funda­ mental magnetic interactions. Magnetic fields are involved in many physics experiments discussed in ather chapters of this volume-in magnetaresistance (Chapter 4), plasma physics (Chapter 6), superfluidity in 3 He (Chapter 9), and magnetospheric physics (Chapter 7). I. THE PHYSICS OF MAGNETIC SOLIDS G. W. Elmen's discovery of Permalloy, Perminvar, and other materi­ als has already been described in Chapter 8, section 2, of the first volume of this series, The Early Years (1875-1925).

  • Ferromagnetic Resonance
    Chapter 1 Ferromagnetic Resonance Orhan Yalçın Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/56134 1. Introduction Ferromagnetism is used to characterize magnetic behavior of a material, such as the strong attraction to a permanent magnet. The origin of this strong magnetism is the presence of a spontaneous magnetization which is produced by a parallel alignment of spins. Instead of a parallel alignment of all the spins, there can be an anti-parallel alignment of unequal spins. This results in a spontaneous magnetization which is called ferrimagnetism. The resonance arises when the energy levels of a quantized system of electronic or nuclear moments are Zeeman split by a uniform magnetic field and the system absorbs energy from an oscillating magnetic field at sharply defined frequencies corresponding to the transitions between the levels. Classically, the resonance event occurs when a transverse ac field is applied at the Larmor frequency. The resonance behaviour usually called magnetic resonance (MR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Main types of resonance phenomenon can be listed as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR), electron paramagnetic/spin resonance (EPR, ESR), spin wave resonance (SWR), ferromagnetic resonance (FMR), antiferromagnetic resonance (AFMR) and conductor electron spin resonance (CESR). The resonant may be an isolated ionic spin as in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) or a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Also, resonance effects are associated with the spin waves and the domain walls. The resonance methods are important for investigating the structure and magnetic properties of solids and other materials. These methods are used for imaging and other applications.
