Inhaltszusammenfassung


Element-specific magnetic moments were investigated for epitaxial Ni2Mn1 xGa1?x and (Ni2MnGa)1?x(Co2FeSi)x Heusler films using x-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray circular magnetic dichroism in transmission. The epitaxial films of the Ni2MnGa-derived compositions were prepared by dc-sputtering on Al2O3 substrates at 773 K. X-ray diffraction confirms a (1 1 0) oriented growth. An increase in the Mn concentration reduces the magnetic spin moment of both Mn and Ni.

The epitaxial films of the Ni2MnGa-derived compositions were prepared by dc-sputtering on Al2O3 substrates at 773 K. X-ray diffraction confirms a (1 1 0) oriented growth. An increase in the Mn concentration reduces the magnetic spin moment of both Mn and Ni. An increase in the content of Co2FeSi in the Ni2MnGa compound leads to an increase in the Mn and Ni spin moments and to a decrease in Tm for 5% Co2FeSi and finally to a suppression of the phase transition for 20% Co2FeSi. The orbital moments of the stoichiometric Ni2MnGa films are larger compared with values obtained for films of a Mn-rich compound and smaller compared with Co2FeSi containing films. The results are discussed in the context of theoretical models.» weiterlesen» einklappen
