摘要:

控制磁矩的择优取向对于基于薄膜和异质结构的自旋电子器件的设计是至关重要的。随着膜厚度或温度的增加,易各向异性轴通常从表面和界面能量贡献所优选的面外方向重新取向为体积各向异性项所支持的面内取向。基于从头计算参数化的自旋模型,采用温回火的亚自洽方法研究了W(110)表面Fe原子层中温度驱动的自旋重取向跃迁,发现这种跃迁只发生在Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya相互作用的情况下.这表明手征自旋不仅区分不同转动方向的非共线自旋结构,而且还影响共线磁位形的磁取向。

英文摘要:

Controlling the preferred direction of the magnetic moments is essential for the design of spintronic devices based on ultrathin films and heterostructures. As the film thickness or the temperature is increased, the easy anisotropy axis is typically reoriented from an out-of-plane direction preferred by surface and interface energy contributions to an in-plane alignment favored by the volume anisotropy terms. We study the temperature-driven spin reorientation transition in two atomic layers of Fe on W(110) using well-tempered metadynamics simulations based on a spin model parametrized by ab initio calculations and find that the transition only takes place in the presence of the Dzyaloshinsky--Moriya interaction (DMI). This demonstrates that the chiral DMI does not only differentiate between noncollinear spin structures of different rotational senses, but it also influences the magnetic orientation of collinear magnetic configurations.
