摘要:

我们用自旋极化中子反射法研究了由铁磁Gd层和超导Nb层组成的超晶格的磁化强度分布。在[Gd($d_F$)/Nb(25 nm)] $_{12}$超晶格中,观察到Gd层的铁磁(F)序在Nb层的超导(S)转变下被部分抑制。抑制的幅度随着$d_F$的增加而减小。通过分析中子自旋不对称性,我们得出结论,所观察到的效果具有电磁起源-邻近耦合的S层屏蔽外部磁场,从而抑制结构内部Gd层的F响应。我们的研究表明,电磁效应对S/F系统的磁性有相当大的影响。

英文摘要:

We have used spin-polarized neutron reflectometry to investigate the magnetization profile of superlattices composed of ferromagnetic Gd and superconducting Nb layers. We have observed a partial suppression of ferromagnetic (F) order of Gd layers in [Gd($d_F$)/Nb(25nm)]$_{12}$ superlattices below the superconducting (S) transition of the Nb layers. The amplitude of the suppression decreases with increasing $d_F$. By analyzing the neutron spin asymmetry we conclude that the observed effect has an electromagnetic origin - the proximity-coupled S layers screen out the external magnetic field and thus suppress the F response of the Gd layers inside the structure. Our investigation demonstrates the considerable influence of electromagnetic effects on the magnetic properties of S/F systems.
