Interfacial contribution to thickness dependent in-plane anisotropic magnetoresistance (2015)
Journal Article
Tokaç, M., Wang, M., Jaiswal, S., Rushforth, A. W., Gallagher, B. L., Atkinson, D., & Hindmarch, A. T. (2015). Interfacial contribution to thickness dependent in-plane anisotropic magnetoresistance. AIP Advances, 5(12), 127108. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4937556

We have studied in-plane anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) in cobalt films with overlayers having designed electrically interface transparency. With an electrically opaque cobalt/overlayer interface, the AMR ratio is shown to vary in inverse propor...

Scientific Reports, 5(1), Article 17079. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep17079

Tetragonal CuMnAs is an antiferromagnetic material with favourable properties for applications in spintronics. Using a combination of neutron diffraction and x-ray magnetic linear dichroism, we determine the spin axis and magnetic structure in tetrag...

We report on a study of ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As/(Al,Ga,Mn)As bilayers using magnetometry and polarized neutron reflectivity (PNR). From depth-resolved characterization of the magnetic structure obtained by PNR, we concluded that the (Ga...

Resonant driving of magnetization precession in a ferromagnetic layer by coherent monochromatic phonons. Physical review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, 92(2), https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.92.020404

We realize resonant driving of the magnetization precession by monochromatic phonons in a thin ferromagnetic layer embedded into a phononic Fabry-Pérot resonator. A femtosecond laser pulse excites resonant phonon modes of the structure in the 10−40 G...

The perpendicular magnetic anisotropy Keff, magnetization reversal, and field-driven domain wall velocity in the creep regime are modified in Pt/Co(0.85–1.0 nm)/Pt thin films by strain applied via piezoelectric transducers. Keff, measured by the extr... Read More about Modification of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and domain wall velocity in Pt/Co/Pt by voltage-induced strain.
