摘要:

铁磁多层膜中的非共线手征自旋织构是纳米磁性研究的前沿,有望用于快速和节能的器件。最近证明的可能性,以稳定这种手性结构的合成反铁磁体(SAF)引起了人们的兴趣,因为他们是免疫偶极场,因此有利于超小纹理的稳定,提高流动性,并避免横向偏转的运动skyrmion限制在一些预见的应用效率。然而,这种具有零净磁化的系统因此难以通过大多数标准技术来表征。在这里,我们报告的磁性SAF纹理的相关参数,这些是它的周期,它的类型(Néel或布洛赫)和它的手性(顺时针或逆时针),可以直接确定使用圆二色性在X射线共振散射(CD-XRMS)在半整数多层布拉格峰在倒易空间。在温度的依赖性的分析下降到40 K,使我们能够解决的问题,此外,在SAF样品中的自旋螺旋的温度稳定性和对称和反对称交换相互作用的温度标度。

英文摘要:

Noncollinear chiral spin textures in ferromagnetic multilayers are at the forefront of recent research in nano-magnetism with the promise for fast and energy-efficient devices. The recently demonstrated possibilities to stabilize such chiral structures in synthetic antiferromagnets (SAF) has raised interests as they are immune to dipolar field, hence favoring the stabilization of ultra small textures, improve mobility and avoid the transverse deflections of moving skyrmions limiting the efficiency in some foreseen applications. However, such systems with zero net magnetization are hence difficult to characterize by most of the standard techniques. Here, we report that the relevant parameters of a magnetic SAF texture, those being its period, its type (Néel or Bloch) and its chirality (clockwise or counterclockwise), can be directly determined using the circular dichroism in x-ray resonant scattering (CD-XRMS) at half integer multilayer Bragg peaks in reciprocal space. The analysis of the dependence in temperature down to 40K allows us moreover to address the question of the temperature stability of a spin spiral in a SAF sample and of the temperature scaling of the symmetric and antisymmetric exchange interactions.
