7 Occurrence of dual loops in F-AF bilayers Sometimes double-shifted loops are obtained instead of a single, shifted, hysteresis loop H.-W. Zhao et al., J. Appl. Phys. 91 (2002) 6893 P. Miltényi et al., Appl. Phys. Lett. 75 (1999) 2304 Only for systems with in-plane anisotropy. The exchange bias (shift of the loop) is the same for each sub-loop (only vertical tailoring). This is ascribed to the coupling between the F and differently oriented domains in the AF 7
8 New types of double-shifted loops? Are dual loops possible in systems with out-of-plane anisotropy? Is it possible to tailor both the loop shift and the vertical magnetization amplitude of each sub-loop separately? What happens in patterned structures? Is it possible to imprint inhomogeneous magnetization states (e.g., vortices) into an AF? 8

Sample Preparation SYSTEM 1: Continuous multilayer with perpendicular anisotropy [Pt (2nm)/Co (0.65nm)] 3 / Pt(0.1nm)/IrMn(5nm)/Pt(2nm) F multilayer with perpendicular-to-plane anisotropy AF with high blocking temperature (T B = 500 K) SYSTEM 2: Array of patterned disks with in-plane anisotropy Ta (5 nm)/ Permalloy (12 nm)/ Pt (2 nm) ; Ta (5 nm)/ Py (12 nm)/ IrMn (5 nm)/pt (2nm) Buffer F Capping ; Buffer F AF Capping - Continuous films deposited by magnetron sputtering - Arrays of disks prepared by e-beam lithography - Heat treatments from above the blocking temperature The blocking temperature is the temperature at which the loop shift is locally set. 9

12 How to imprint domains into the AF? AC -Demag. Apply Field H FC Sample Heat Sample Sample Sample 20 mm to T Dem = 520 K T dem > T B Cool in zero - field to RT (c) (a) (b) m 0 H FC = 0 M R /M S = 0 m 0 H FC = 3.5 mt M R /M S = 0.45 m 0 H FC = 800 mt M R /M S =
13 M Tailoring of the magnetization amplitude of each sub-loop Applied field: 1 0 mt There is a correlation between the F magnetisation after imprint and the vertical amplitude ratio ΔM: mt M (a) 0.9 (c) (a) M / M s mt mt (b) (b) M r / M s mt 0 MFM domain coverage corresponds to vertical amplitude ratio AF exchange interaction direction mimics the FM domain pattern m 0 H (T) (c) AF regions with less or equal size than F domains 13

Tailoring of the loop shift of each sub-loop AC - Demagnetisation H ext Apply 800 mt H ext H ext Sample Heat to T Dem = 520 K Sample Cool in zero - field to RT Heat to T ANN Sample Cool in field to RT Sample Vertical Tailoring after ZFC at T = 300 K Horizontal Tailoring AF F A distribution of local blocking temperatures in the AF is considered. This distribution of T B stems from a distribution of crystallite sizes and/or Local T B < T 300 ANN local anisotropies in the AF T ANN at T = T T (K) ANN AF 14
15 Distribution (a.u.) Tailoring of the loop shift of each sub-loop 1 (a) after ZFC at T = 300 K 0 H + E H Ē AF -1 1 no T ANN F M / M s m 0 H (T) T ANN = 350K T ANN = 370K T ANN = 390K T ANN = 520K AF F Local T B < T ANN T ANN (b) at T = T T (K) ANN In one of the two sub-systems, the direction of the AF is locally reversed H ext The resultant loop shift in one of the two sub-loops progressively averages out as T ANN is increased. This implies that the AF regions have to be smaller than the F domains 15
16 Possible to combine both procedures (full tailoring)? Vertical tuning followed by: (i) (ii) M/M S m 0 H (T) m 0 H (T) Horizontal tuning of the subloop on the right Horizontal tuning of the subloop on the left 16
