研究目的
Investigating the dependence of visible-light transmission on the magnetic field direction in magnetic nanoparticle systems to study photon-magnon interactions.
研究成果
The transmission of visible light in Cox-(Al2O3)100-x films shows dependencies on magnetic field angle, field strength, Co composition, and wavelength, attributed to photon-magnon interactions. This suggests a method for studying such interactions and potential applications in optical spin manipulations using external magnetic fields.
研究不足
The study is limited to Co compositions up to 45 at.% and magnetic field angles up to 45°, with wavelengths in the visible range (560-695 nm). The setup may not account for all external factors, and the interpretations are based on specific material properties and experimental conditions.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses an experimental setup to measure transmission of visible light through magnetic nanogranular films as a function of the angle between the magnetic field direction and the incident light direction, with a fixed magnetic field strength of 400 Oe. The method involves rotating an electromagnet to vary the angle θ from 0° to 45° while keeping the light beam perpendicular to the sample surface.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Samples are Cox-(Al2O3)100-x thin films with Co compositions x = 10, 15, 25, 35, 40, and 45 at.%, deposited on glass substrates using radio-frequency co-sputtering. Thickness is about 90-100 nm, determined by an IQ Alpha-Step profilometer. Co composition is verified by X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS).
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment includes a visible white light source, lenses, monochromator (selected wavelengths 560-695 nm), chopper, polarizer, analyzer, sample holder, electromagnet (field strength 400 Oe), CdS photodetector, and lock-in amplifier (DSP 7225). Materials include Co and Al2O3 targets for sputtering, argon gas, and glass substrates.
4:5). Materials include Co and Al2O3 targets for sputtering, argon gas, and glass substrates. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
4. Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow: The sample is placed in the electromagnet center. The magnetic field direction is rotated to vary θ, and transmission intensity is measured for different wavelengths. Transmission ratio T(θ) = JT(400 Oe)/JT(0 Oe) is calculated, where JT is the transmitted light intensity measured by the photodetector and lock-in amplifier.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data is analyzed to observe dependencies on θ, H, x, and λ, attributing behaviors to photon-magnon interactions, with interpretations based on plasmonic spin mechanisms and resonant conditions.
