Spin-wave excitations in epitaxial ultrathin FeCo with zero magnetocrystalline anisotropy

Spin-wave theory predicts reduced thermal spin-wave excitations due to a magnetic anisotropy. Recent results show that a strong uniaxial in-plane anisotropy in ultrathin Fe ∕ GaAs ( 001 ) films indeed stabilizes the ferromagnetic order versus thermal spin excitations [ Kipferl , J. Appl. Phys. 97 ,...

description Spin-wave theory predicts reduced thermal spin-wave excitations due to a magnetic anisotropy. Recent results show that a strong uniaxial in-plane anisotropy in ultrathin Fe ∕ GaAs ( 001 ) films indeed stabilizes the ferromagnetic order versus thermal spin excitations [ Kipferl , J. Appl. Phys. 97 , 10B313 ( 2005 ) ]. In order to study whether a fourth-order in-plane anisotropy has a similar effect epitaxial Fe 70 Co 30 ∕ Au ( 001 ) samples with zero magnetocrystalline anisotropy were studied and compared to results for Fe ∕ Au ( 001 ) . The temperature dependence of the spontaneous magnetization M S for T < 0.5 T c can be well described by the Bloch [ Z. Phys. 61 , 206 ( 1930 )] T 3 ∕ 2 law in the entire thickness range. However, for each thickness B is reduced in Fe 70 Co 30 ∕ Au ( 001 ) compared to Fe ∕ Au ( 001 ) films despite the reduced anisotropy. This means that the effect of a weak in-plane anisotropy is overcompensated by the enhanced exchange interaction.
