Exchange bias in reduced dimensions: cobalt nanocluster arrays under the influence of nanometer thin MnPt capping layers

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The magnetic behavior of cobalt nanocluster arrays arranged on a boron-nitride nanomesh and capped with MnPt layers of varying thickness θ MnPt is investigated. The magnetic properties of the arrays are found to be strongly dependent on the cobalt nanocluster size: large 3-dimensional clusters of several nanometers size under the influence of only θ MnPt 5nm exhibit prototypical exchange bias behavior, whereas small 2-dimensional clusters of about 1nm in diameter show superparamagnetic behavior, however, with a strong quenching of the average cobalt magnetization. The latter effect is correlated with the formation of a stable antiferromagnetic phase at increasing θMnPt and is discussed in terms of the domain state exchange bias model. The quenching suggests either partial antiferromagnetic alignment of cobalt spins within a cluster or a random orientation of cobalt cluster macrospins with respect to each other.
