Influence of the capping layer material on the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in Pt/Co/capping layer structures probed by Brillouin light scattering<sup></sup>
摘要： Influence of the capping layer material on the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in Pt/Co/capping layer structures probed by Brillouin light scattering. Co ultrathin films, of various thicknesses (0.8 nm ≤ tCo ≤ 2.5 nm), have been grown by sputtering on Si substrates, using Pt buffer layers and different capping layers (Cu, Ir, MgO and Pt). The x-ray diffraction revealed that our films have a (111) out-of-plane texture with various degrees of strains. Their magnetic properties have been studied by vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and Brillouin light scattering (BLS) in the Damon-Eshbach geometry. VSM characterizations revealed that films with Co thickness below (above) the spin reorientation transition thickness, which is capping layer dependent, are perpendicularly (in-plane) magnetized, suggesting the existence of an interface anisotropy. The magnetic dead layer has been taken into account to precisely determine the surface anisotropy constant was found to be 1.42 ± 0.02 erg/cm2 and of 1.33 ± 0.02 erg/cm2 for the Pt/Co/Cu and Pt/Co/Ir samples, respectively, suggesting that it is due to the Pt/Co interface and that the top Co/Cu or Co/Ir interfaces have a negligible contribution. A lower value of 1.07 ± 0.02 erg/cm2 has been obtained for Pt/Co/MgO most probably due to over-oxidation of Co at the Co/MgO interface. The BLS measurements revealed a pronounced nonreciprocal spin waves propagation, due to the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (iDMI) induced by Pt interface with Co, which increases with decreasing Co thickness. The surface iDMI constant Ds estimated at -0.8 pJ/m, -1.05 pJ/m and –0.95 pJ/m, respectively for Pt/Co/Ir, Pt/Co/Cu and Pt/Co/MgO for the samples where a linear thickness dependence of the effective iDMI constant has been observed.

摘要： The influence of electrodes on the space charge distribution in solid polymer electrolytes has been investigated. Aluminum-poly(ethylene oxide)-aluminum sample structures with varying distance between the metal electrodes are considered. The charge distribution in the poly(ethylene oxide) is extracted by differentiating twice the surface potential measured by the Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy. With this approach, charge oscillations and charge packets have been detected for the first time in solid electrolytes under biased and unbiased conditions.
