2 1. General Introduction to finite size Why make things small? Physics reasons: 1) -finite size (electrons confined), -domain formation inhibited. 2) -more interface. Economic reasons more devices on a chip or more magnetic storage density
3 Why Make Things Small? 1) Modify/create new materials properties i) Finite size effects Quantization of energy levels (confinement) k F = (3 2 n) 1/3 F ~ 1/n 1/3 Reduced ordering temperatures Melting point Magnetic ordering Increased coercivity (single magnetic domains) ii) Surface/Interface effects. Layers, particles, < 10nm. Interface Anisotropy Interface Exchange Giant magnetoresistance in magnetic nanostructures
4 Economical to make current devices smaller. e.g. magnetic storage media (Himpsel, Adv. Phys. 47, 511 (1998)) Bit density for a hard disk
5 Electron density and size effects- general Finite size effects - Quantization of energy levels (confinement) Allowed states: -h 2 /2m (d 2 /dx 2 + ) = E k (x+l,y,z)= (x,y,z) From SE E = h 2 k 2 /2m Boundary condition = e ikr e ikxl = 1 or k x L = 2n k x =2 /L, 4 /L, E k = h 2 /2m(k x2 +k y 2 + k z2 ) Max k = kf 2 (4/3) k F 3 /(2 /L) 3 = N k f = (3 2 N/V) 1/3 E f = h 2 /2m k f 2 k F = (3 2 n) 1/3 F ~ 1/n 1/3 Semiconductor n << metal n L large energy levels closely spaces continuum L small Energy levels not closely spaced Semiconductor n small, F is large. There size effects more important for semiconductors at large size than for metals.
6 Electrons (and holes) in quantum wells Discuss the differences between a conductor, semiconductor, insulator Energy levels and bandgaps in bulk materials Room temp about 1/40 ev Conduction band Energy gap, E g Valence band
7 Band structure of a quantum well Al 0.3 Ga 0.7 As GaAs Al 0.3 Ga 0.7 As Cross-section of quantum well 5 nm E e 0.28 ev 1.85 ev 1.43 ev Bandstructure E h Quantum well 0.14 ev Energy of photon emitted when e - undergoes a transition: E e E h is E 1 + E h + E g
8 Semiconductor preparation Starting materials must be very pure then use a well defined amount of doping Si(As) Vapor phase epitaxy SiCl 4 + 2H 2 Si + 4HCL Add dopant gas e.g. one containing As (column 5), donates electron. Reaction chamber Si substrate (heated) pump Can use other gases such as Silane (SiH 4 ) Silicon tetrachloride reacts with H to give elemental Si. Occurs at surface deposit Si (+ any impurities). HCl does not disturb surface Reaction is reversible etch Si surface
9 2. Finite size in magnetic systems
10 Single magnetic domains Bulk material in the form of a single magnetic domain B outside is large so (B 2 /2 o ) dv is small Bulk material breaks up into magnetic domains to reduce magnetostatic energy B outside is small so (B 2 /2 o ) dv is small
11 Energetics of magnetic domains Magnetostatic energy E m = (B 2 /2 o ) dv volume V of magnetic domain. w E m /V = { (B 2 /2 o ) dv }V constant Domain wall energy, E w (J/m 2 ) surface area of wall V 2/3 w = E w (J/m2)/V surface area of wall/v V -1/3 Bulk: V -1/3 smaller than V, easier for domain walls to form Nanoscale: V -1/3 larger than V, difficult for domain walls to form So expect that for sufficiently small V, the sample should be a single magnetic domain. Important because domain walls no longer present coercivity is very high

17 A Problem: Superparamagnetism Smaller bit size higher density magnetic recording (Co-Pt-Cr) Currently bit size is ~ 0.25 m, Density = 10 Gigabit/in 2 Superparamagnetism Flip rate due to thermal fluctuations: 1/ = exp(- E/k B T) 2.4x10 9 s -1 Depends on size of particle (KV) size (nm) week years Lower limit bit size 20 nm, Density = 1 Terabit/ in 2 Superparamagnetism ultimate limit for storage density

56 Calculated magnetic phase diagrams M A = 2, M B = 1, K A = 1, K B = 1, P = 0
57 Hysteresis Loop (not inverted) A, B vs H Hysteresis loop
58 Co-CoO Results Can obtain inverted behavior in hysteresis with right choice of M s and K s Appear to correspond to phases with large M and small K (pure Co) and a second phase with small M and larger K (CoO).
59 Final comments Finite size effects exist in many nanostructured rare-earth based magnetic systems. These effects appear in the Magnetic ordering temperature Magnetic anisotropy Coercivity New physics at the interface also emerges with an interfacial contribution to magnetic anisotropy that can be measured multilayers.
