低温磁声学中的可调 substituted 铁石榴石
摘要
通过物理气相沉积合成 nm 厚的铁石榴石薄膜,为基于矿子(magnon)编码的芯片上微波信号产生与处理开辟了令人振奋的机遇。然而,铁石榴石薄膜存在着苛刻的晶格匹配和化学计量要求。本文发展了一种新的制备方法,使其能够基于二元氧化物共沉积实现铁石榴石组成的精确连续调谐。通过将铁以可控比例替换为钇镍,获得了 Y(YFe)O 薄膜,其晶体质量优良,结合广泛可调的晶格参数和优异的磁化动力学特性。这使得铁石榴石薄膜适用于低温应用,此类应用长期以来因基片中铁氧体的介电损耗而难以实现。低温铁磁共振确认了 Y(YFe)O 薄膜在与 YScGaO (YSGG) 晶格匹配的情况下,基片介电损耗已被消除。Y(YFe)O 体系还可匹配至其他基片,如 (Gd,Y)ScGaO。Bi 取代薄膜 (BiY)FeO 也与 YSGG 具有理想的晶格匹配,展示了这一方法的多样性。这为铁石榴石薄膜的锂取代提供了前所未有的选择,为开发具有新特性的低温量子磁声学器件指明了前景。
