Preface

In 1996, we published the first data book entitled Phase Diagrams and Physical Properties of Nonequilibrium Alloys as part of the Landolt-Boernstein (LB) series, which accumulates ternary metallic amorphous phase diagrams and makes them fairly simple. Although in the preface of the book I stated that the rest of the data books including this volume Magnetic and Electric Properties of Magnetic Metallic Multilayers will be published in the very near future, it was not an easy task to work on the physical properties of materials, and it took 26 years to publish a total of 12 books. Especially for magnetic properties, there are different types of notations and units to express physical properties, and these should be checked one by one. This is the main reason why it took so long to confirm all the data. We are a very rare group from Japan who collect, extract, and combine all data published in various journals and directly from researchers working on the subject. We have checked more than 2,500 published papers concerning magnetic materials and extracted necessary properties to construct a meaningful database for researchers all over the world. Finally, more than 60 kinds of magnetic and electric properties are listed in our data book for 25 species. We hope that this data book will be used by many researchers for a long time to come. We should not be selfish as a researcher and should inform what we know to other researchers. About 30 years ago when we started this data book project at the Institute of Materials Research, Tohoku University, I stated to my people working on this project that we should develop the LB series to serve all researchers equally along the lines of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s, famous speech “I have a dream,” where he expresses his idea of unification of black and white people in America. In the twenty-first century, it is regrettable that there are still major challenges for researchers in all fields of research, depending on the country of their origin, as there are several who do not have easy access to journals and therefore cannot obtain enough information for their research. Now is the time! We should overcome this difficult situation by providing a reliable database to accelerate their research work. In these 26 years, two of our collaborators, Professors Takejiro Kaneko and Shunya Abe, passed away. They were the main persons working on this very tedious work. We are very much thankful for their great contribution to achieve this final form. We also acknowledge a number of people who contributed to extract the papers from the journals; 26 years ago, there was no online database, and we had to vii

Introduction

General Remarks The subject of this volume is to present both the numerical and graphical data on the magnetic and electrical properties of magnetic metallic multilayers which are composed with stacking up of double layers of thin films, one layer of which is at least the magnetic layer of 3d metals (M) or rare earth ones (R). Furthermore the data of the trilayers which have a top layer and bottom one of magnetic elements are also presented. In general, magnetic multilayers are classified into groups of five kinds with a difference of combinations of constituent elements as follows: (1) [Ml/M0 m]n, (2) [Ml/Xm]n, (3) [Ml/Rm]n, (4) [Rl/Xm]n, and (5) [Rl/R0 m]n, where M and M0 are 3d elements, R and R0 rare earth ones, and X non-magnetic ones, respectively. Among them, the multilayers of [Ml/M0 m]n are investigated extensively because they are the most useful multilayers. Therefore in this volume only the data for the multilayers of [Ml/M0 m]n are described in the form of figures and tables. For reference, all of the magnetic multilayers studied until now are given as a list of magnetic multilayers at the end of the book. Magnetic and electric data are presented in the one chapter per each magnetic multilayer of [Ml/M0 m]n. Each section consists of two subsections of (1) magnetic properties and (2) electrical properties. Each subsection then contains the items numbered as shown in the categories of magnetic and electric properties given at the following section “Categories of Magnetic Properties.” So each item contains the data of (1) magnetic field (H )-, (2) temperature (T )-, (3) layer thickness (t)-, and (4) annealing temperature (Tann)-dependence of magnetic properties or electric properties, respectively.

Introduction

As an example of data presentation, a part of data for Cr/Co multilayers is shown below. Cr/Co Magnetization M vs. Magnetic Field H [Co(21 Å)/Cr(14 Å)]n (159), [Co(21 Å)/Cr(23 Å)]n (165), [Co(21 Å)/Cr(50 Å)]n (210). Relative magnetic hysteresis curves for (oxidized p-type Si(100))*/[Co (21 Å)/Cr(14 Å)]n (159)*, (oxidized p-type Si(100))*/[Co(21 Å)/Cr(23 Å)]n (165)*, and (oxidized p-type Si(100))*/[Co(21 Å)/Cr(50 Å)]n (210) multilayers at T ¼ 4.5 K under H || film plane. The number in the parenthesis is ttotal [Ǻ] of multilayers. The flattening of the hysteresis loops with decreasing Cr thickness is attributed to the AF alignment between regions of the Co layers in the multilayer film. Thicknesses tCo and tCr are the nominal values and ttotal denotes the average length in the direction of growth of the crystalline having a coherent multilayer structure [1: EBE*, 2: ~310 K, 3: ~5  1010 Torr*, 4: ~108 Torr*, 5: SQUID], [89SLG]* [90SCL, Fig. 3] The first line indicates an ordinary presentation of [Cr/Co] multilayer in the magnetic layers of [Ml/M0 m]n mentioned above, and the second line corresponds to the field dependence of magnetization as shown in the categories of magnetic and electric properties of the next section. At the top of the figure caption, the chemical formulae of magnetic multilayer are given like [Co(21 Å)/Cr(14 Å)]n (159) and so on. The substance of caption is then described, in which the substance of the figures is explained. Each caption carries a square bracket with some statements on the experimental conditions. The bracket is described, for example, like [1: EBE*, 2: ~310 K, 3: ~5  1010 Torr*, 4: ~108 Torr*, 5: SQUID], [89 SLG].*, where 1 shows the method of sample preparation, 2 the temperature of substrate, 3 base pressure, 4 pressure in the chamber during sample deposition, and 5 experimental method of magnetic properties. Data with note * are those from [89SLG]*. At the end of the caption, the original literature of the figure concerned is given like [90SCL, Fig. 3], where Fig. 3 means that the figure is Fig. 3 of the original literature [90SCL]. However, it is to be noted that the brackets with * do not appear in most of the brackets for other multilayers. References and Additional references are given after the presentations of the data in the item of the Cr/Co multilayers. In References, all the literatures cited in data presentations are given in chronological order. In Additional references, all the literatures collected for the Cr/Co multilayers which were studied up to now except the ones in References are provided. It is noted that in the field of magnetism, we are at a gradual transition stage from the use of cgs/emu units to SI units, confusing the readers of magnetic literature. However, the cgs/emu units are used in most literatures for magnetic multilayers. Thus in this volume the system of units, which was originally used by the authors of quoted work, was adopted as the units representing magnetic quantities. It is considered that this adoption of units will not inconvenience the users of the Landolt-Börnstein series, because there are a very few literatures using SI units.

Of course, users of the tables and figures are benefitted in several ways as they can convert the data to the units which they are most familiar with, since they can use the list of definitions, units, and conversion factors for the magnetic quantities occurring most frequently.

Categories of Magnetic Properties In each section of the multilayer (A/B), the figures and tables are given in the following order: Magnetic Properties Magnetization M M vs. Magnetic Field H M vs. Temperature T M vs. Thickness t M vs. Annealing Tann Saturation Magnetization Ms Ms vs. T Ms vs. t Ms vs. Tann Remanent Magnetization Mr Mr vs. T Mr vs. t Mr vs. Tann Curie Temperature TC TC vs. H TC vs. t TC vs. Tann Permeability μ, Susceptibility χ μ vs. H, χ vs. H μ vs. T, χ vs. T μ vs. t, χ vs. t μ vs. Tann, χ vs. Tann Anisotropy Field HA HA vs. T HA vs. t HA vs. Tann Volume Anisotropic Constant Kv Kv vs. T Kv vs. t Kv vs. Tann

Saturation Magnetization Ms vs. Thickness t

Fig. 5 [Ti(49  3 Å)/Co(tCo)]50. Saturation magnetization multiplied by bilayer thickness Msλ vs. Co thickness tCo for sapphire/[Ti(49  3 Å)/Co(tCo)]50 multilayers at room temperature. The solid line is a least-square fit through data from the five magnetic multilayers indicated by the solid circles. The multilayer shown by the open circle has a thinner Ti layer and was not included in the fit. The magnetization of the Ti/Co multilayers can be described by a simple model. Each Ti layer is nonmagnetic. Each Co layer of thickness tCo is divided into a nonmagnetic layer of thickness tnm at each Ti interface and a magnetic layer of thickness tm at the center of Co layer with in-plane magnetization. The magnetization of the multilayer Ms can be related to that of each Co layer MCo as follows: Msλ ¼ MCotm ¼ MCo(tCo  2tnm), where Ms is the in-plane saturation magnetization. From the linear regression fit to the data for tCo > 24 Å, it is obtained MCo ¼ 1480  100 G and tnm ¼ 11.3  1.3 Å. This value of MCo was determined relative to the magnetic moment measured for pure Co films with thicknesses of 960 Å and 1400 Å.

The magnetization of the multilayer Ms can be related to that of each Co layer MCo as follows: Ms ¼ MCo(1  2 t0/tCo), where Ms is the in-plane saturation magnetization and t0 is the dead layer thickness. From the linear regression fit to the data, it is obtained MCo ¼ 1398 G and t0 ≈ 5.5 Å [1: sp, 2: water cool, 3: ~2  105 Pa, 4: ~0.4 Pa (Ar), 5: VSM] [97WJB(1), Fig. 5; 97WJW(2), Fig. 4]

From linear fit, the magnetization Ms can be written as Ms/M100 ¼ (tCo  2tnm)/tCo. The effective non-magnetic Co layer thickness at the Co/Ti interface, tnm, is estimated to be tnm ≈ 0.5 nm [1: dc sp for Co, rf sp for Ti, 2: RT, 3: 5  1010 mbar, 4: ---, 5: VSM, MOKE] [99S(5), Fig. 2-2]

Anisotropy Field HA vs. Thickness t

Fig. 9 [Ti(49  3 Å)/Co(tCo)]50. Magnetic anisotropy field HA vs. inverse magnetic Co thickness 1/tCo for sapphire/[Ti(49  3 Å)/Co(tCo)]50 multilayers at room temperature. See Fig. 5 [90VED, Fig. 3] for the definition of tm (thickness of magnetic layer). The uniaxial anisotropy coefficient Ku of a multilayer can be modeled using the equation Ku ¼ [(2πMCo2  Kv)tm  2Ks]/λ, where 2πMCo2 is the shape anisotropy of the Co, Kv is the volume anisotropy constant due to the magnetocrystalline and magnetoelastic effects, and Ks is the interface anisotropy constant. In this sign convention, positive anisotropy constants are due to perpendicular anisotropy while negative anisotropy constants are due to in-plane anisotropy. Using the above equation and the equation in Fig. 5 [90VED, Fig. 3], the anisotropy field HA ¼ 2Ku/Ms can be written as HA ¼ 2Kv/MCo + 4πMCo – (4Ks/MCo)tm. HA was determined from the hysteresis data by linear extrapolation of the perpendicular loop to its intersection with the saturated value of the in-plane loop (see Fig. 1 [90VED, Fig. 2]). Ks ¼ 0.23  0.04 erg/cm2 and Kv ¼ (3.5  0.8)  106 erg/cm3 using the MCo ¼ 1480  100 G (see Fig. 5 [90VED, Fig. 3]) [1: dc sp, 2: ---, 3: ≈1  107 Torr, 4: ≈7.5 mTorr (Ar), 5: VSM] [90VED, Fig. 4]

A significant drop of the coercivity -typically from Hc ~ 1.8 to Hc ~ 0.2 kA/m – can be observed at a critical Co thickness tcrit ~ 3 nm [1: dc sp for Co, rf sp for Ti, 2: RT, 3: 5  1010 mbar, 4: ---, 5: VSM, MOKE] [99S(5), Fig. 1; 00SS (1), Fig. 1-1]

A significant drop of the coercivity with decrease in Co thickness -from Hc ~ 1.8–2.1 kA/m to Hc ~ 0.1–0.2 kA/m -- can be observed at a critical Co thickness tcrit ~ 3 nm for tTi ¼ 2 nm and 3.3 nm for tTi ¼ 5 nm. For the Co/Ti multilayers with polycrystalline Co sublayers (tCo > tcrit ~ 3 nm), a small in-plane, highly dispersed uniaxial anisotropy (HA ~ 1–2 kA/m) was observed. The multilayers with nanocrystalline Co sublayers (tCo < tcrit) showed a well-defined in-plane uniaxial anisotropy (HA ~ 2–4 kA/m) [1: dc sp for Co, rf sp for Ti, 2: RT, 3:
