Outline

Reasons for nanomagnetic system investigations

> fundamental investigations of magnetism in nanoscale: - magnetic anisotropy due to impact of the interface and edge atoms - modifications of magnetic moments of atoms (magnetovolume effect) - Curie temperature - electron polarisation - spin wave propagation - interlayer coupling - electron spin scattering > layered coupled systems: spin valves, GMR > patterned media for magnetic data storage (suppression of superparamagnetism,

increase of density storage, multilevel storage) > sources of local magnetic fields for spintronic systems > magnetic quantum cellular automata for logic operations (MQCA) > magnonic crystals: a new type of metamaterial > sensors e.g. in biology: filters in cell cytometry and hyperthermia therapy

MBE systems

Prevac MBE system components:

- growth chamber - MOKE chamber - analysis chamber - ion gun chamber - SPM chamber - UHV: 1E-11 Torr

Prevac system

> 12 pockets (in two electron guns) > 8 effusion cells > available materials: Ni, Co, Fe, Cr, W, Mo, Nb, Ta, V, Pt, Au, Ag, Cu > standard deposition rates: < 0.1 nm/s > RHEED (reflection high electron energy diffraction): crystalline structure > growth of single layers, multilayers, alloys and nanostructures > linear shutter : wedge- and step-like layers, double-wedge systems > sample holders: molyblocks 3” in diameter, temperature up to 1400 °C > standard substrates: 10 x 10 mm

Growth chamber

> measuring configurations: PMOKE (polar; out-of-plane component) LMOKE (longitudinal; in-plane component; angular dependence) > scan over the sample surface > map of remnant magnetization (at H=0) > magnetic fields up to 3.8 kOe MOKE – magnetooptical Kerr effect

Co

MOKE magnetometry chamber

> structural modifications of magnetic systems (interfaces and volume alloying) > noble gases: He, Ar (currently), Ne, Xe > energy range: up to 25 keV > fluences: 1e12 – 1e16 cm-2

> linear shutter: step- or wedge-like profiles of the dose > etching

Ion gun chamber

> low energy electron diffraction (LEED): crystalline structure > Auger electron spectroscopy (AES): chemical composition; diffusional processes > direct heating stage for e.g. semiconducting substrate preparation > e-gun heating stage for sample heating up to 2000 °C

Analysis chamber

Omicron VT SPM XA Series 50 – 500 K scanning probe microscopy (SPM) modes:

> atomic force microscopy (AFM): topography; all materials > magnetic force microscopy (MFM): magnetic domain structure > scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy (STM/STS): topography and local

electronic structure, only conducting materials

Summary: towards applications …

Wedged magnetic layers: - cancer cell (containing magnetic nanoparticles) filtering by domain wall movement

for hyperthermia therapy Magnetic dots: - elements of patterned media with perpendicular storage - multilevel magnetic storage (dot – matrix composite) - filter in cell cytometry Patterned structures by ion and laser beams: - magnonic crystals: a new type of metamaterials with band structure that can be

reprogrammed during operation Coupled magnetic layers: - GMR and spin valve effect - spatially patterned coupling: switchable magnonic crystals … and probably many other applications….
