摘要:

研究了Al掺杂对CoFeB合金磁性能的影响。比较测量了CoFeB和CoFeAlB薄膜的饱和磁化强度、Gilbert阻尼参数$α$和交换常数随退火温度的变化。我们的研究结果表明,CoFeAlB相比,CoFeB的磁化强度大幅降低。如果所制备的CoFeAlB薄膜是非晶的,与CoFeB合金相比,阻尼参数$α$不受Al掺杂的影响。相反,在结晶CoFeAlB膜的情况下,发现$α$被还原。此外,X-射线表征和交换常数随退火温度的演变表明在两种合金中类似的结晶过程。这些数据证明了CoFeAlB的自旋扭矩切换性能的适用性,其中与CoFeB相比,切换电流的减少是预期的。

英文摘要:

We investigate the effect of Al doping on the magnetic properties of the alloy CoFeB. Comparative measurements of the saturation magnetization, the Gilbert damping parameter $α$ and the exchange constant as a function of the annealing temperature for CoFeB and CoFeAlB thin films are presented. Our results reveal a strong reduction of the magnetization for CoFeAlB in comparison to CoFeB. If the prepared CoFeAlB films are amorphous, the damping parameter $α$ is unaffected by the Al doping in comparison to the CoFeB alloy. In contrast, in the case of a crystalline CoFeAlB film, $α$ is found to be reduced. Furthermore, the x-ray characterization and the evolution of the exchange constant with the annealing temperature indicate a similar crystallization process in both alloys. The data proves the suitability of CoFeAlB for spin torque switching properties where a reduction of the switching current in comparison with CoFeB is expected.
