We report a detailed study of the structural and ferromagnetic resonance properties of spinel nickel ferrite (NFO) films, grown on (100)-oriented cubic MgAl2O4 substrates by direct liquid injection chemical vapor deposition (DLI-CVD) technique. Three different compositions of NFO films (NixFe3-xO4 where x=1, 0.8, 0.6) deposited at optimized growth temperature of 600 degrees C are characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM), and broadband ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) techniques. XRD confirms the growth of epitaxial, single crystalline NixFe3-xO4 films. The out-of-plane lattice constant (c) obtained for Ni0.8Fe2.2O4 film is slightly higher than the bulk value (0.833 nm), indicating only partial strain relaxation whereas for the other two compositions (x=1 and x=0.6) films exhibit complete relaxation. The in-plane and out-of-plane FMR linewidths measurements at 10 GHz give the lowest values of 458 Oe and 98 Oe, respectively, for Ni0.8Fe2.2O4 film as compared to the other two compositions. A comprehensive frequency (5-40 GHz) and temperature (10-300 K) dependent FMR study of the Ni0.8Fe2.2O4 sample for both in-lane and out-of plane configurations reveals two magnon scattering (TMS) as the dominant in-plane relaxation mechanism. It is observed that the TMS contribution to the FMR linewidth scales with the saturation magnetization M-s. In-plane angle-dependent FMR measurements performed on the same sample show that the ferromagnetic resonance field (H-res) and the FMR linewidth (Delta H) have a four-fold symmetry that is consistent with the crystal symmetry of the spinel. SEM measurements show formation of pyramid like microstructures at the surface of the Ni0.8Fe2.2O4 sample, which can explain the observed four-fold symmetry of the FMR linewidth.

Influence of layer dependent perpendicular anisotropy on higher-order anisotropies in thin films

Ashok Pokhrel, Bhuwan Nepal, Upama Karki, Arjun Sapkota, Anish Rai, Sara Bey, Tim Mewes, Claudia Mewes

Summary: This article investigates the influence of layer dependent second-order perpendicular anisotropy on higher-order anisotropies in thin films using a macrospin model. The study finds that the origin of the fourth-order anisotropy is linked to the layer-wise variation of magnetization direction, resulting in a dependence on field strength and exchange stiffness. Furthermore, it is observed that the apparent fourth-order anisotropy increases with decrease in exchange stiffness.

Room-temperature intrinsic and extrinsic damping in polycrystalline Fe thin films

Shuang Wu, David A. Smith, Prabandha Nakarmi, Anish Rai, Michael Clavel, Mantu K. Hudait, Jing Zhao, Claudia Mewes, Tim Mewes, Satoru Emori

Summary: This study investigates room-temperature magnetic relaxation in polycrystalline Fe films. It is found that the intrinsic Gilbert damping parameter remains unchanged regardless of the microstructural properties of the Fe films, contrary to intuition. This suggests that the room-temperature intrinsic Gilbert damping in Fe films is primarily determined by the bcc crystal structure within the nanoscale grains, with limited effects from grain boundaries and film roughness. In addition, the in-plane FMR linewidths of the Fe films exhibit nonlinear frequency dependencies, indicating the presence of strong extrinsic damping.

Summary: The elementary excitations spectrum of anisotropic frustrated antiferromagnets in the fan phase is discussed. It is found that the low-energy part of the spectrum consists of a gapless phason branch with linear dispersion and a gapped optical branch corresponding to the fan structure amplitude oscillations. In the high-energy part of the spectrum, the excitations are similar to the magnons of the fully polarized phase.

Vapor bubbles departure frequency at ferrofluid boiling on a single nucleation site in a uniform horizontal magnetic field

Alexander Ya. Simonovskii, Alexander A. Yanovskii, Arthur R. Zakinyan

Summary: In this study, the departure frequency of vapor bubbles during boiling of ferrofluid in a horizontal magnetic field is experimentally investigated. Two methods, visual and inductive, are used to measure the frequency of bubble departure. The results show that the bubble departure frequency can decrease with increasing magnetic field strength and increase with increasing temperature of the heat-emitting surface. A linear stability analysis is conducted to analyze the influence of the magnetic field on the frequency of bubble formation during ferrofluid boiling.

Thermodynamic, entanglement and spin Hall conductivity on kagome-honeycomb lattice system

Leonardo S. Lima

Summary: This study investigates the thermodynamic quantities, such as entropy, specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility, in the next-nearest-neighbors Heisenberg model on a honeycomb-kagome lattice. The linear spin-wave approach is applied to obtain the temperature-dependent behavior of these quantities. Additionally, the entanglement negativity, a quantifier of quantum entanglement, and the spin Hall conductivity are also studied. The results show that all the thermodynamic quantities, as well as the entanglement negativity and spin Hall conductivity, exhibit an increasing trend with temperature. Furthermore, it is found that all the analyzed quantities approach zero in the low-temperature limit, consistent with experimental observations.
