We present a method to map the saturation magnetization of soft ultrathin films with perpendicular anisotropy, and we illustrate it to assess the compositional dependence of the magnetization of CoFeB(1 nm)/MgO films. The method relies on…
Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond have recently been established as effective sensors of the magnetization dynamics in vicinal ferromagnetic materials. We demonstrate sub-100 nm placement accuracy of nitrogen-vacancy-containing…
Measurement of the magnetization in the bulk of thin-film or two-dimensional materials is important for understanding their intrinsic properties without the complications from edges or domain walls. However, the stray fields from the bulk…
In this work we present results acquired by applying magnetic field imaging technique based on Nitrogen-Vacancy centres in diamond crystal for characterization of magnetic thin films defects. We used the constructed wide-field magnetic…
Focused ion beam irradiation of metastable Fe$_{78}$Ni$_{22}$ thin films grown on Cu(100) substrates results in the localized transformation of the originally paramagnetic, face-centered-cubic continuous film into ferromagnetic patterns…
We investigate the influence of periodic surface roughness in thin ferromagnetic films on shape anisotropy and magnetization behavior inside the ferromagnet. Starting from the full micromagnetic energy and using methods of homogenization…
Shape anisotropy provides a simple mechanism to adjust the local bias field in patterned structures. It is well known that for ellipsoidal particles $<1$ $\mu$m in size, a quasi-single domain state can be realized with uniform anisotropy…
An alternate method of measuring anisotropy fields in thin film ferromagnets is demonstrated. The method relies on the magnetic susceptibility in a small a.c. magnetic field, measured \txtit{in situ} using the magneto-optic Kerr effect…
An improved method for characterizing the magnetic anisotropy of films with cubic symmetry is described and is applied to an yttrium iron garnet (111) film. Analysis of the FMR spectra performed both in-plane and out-of-plane from 0.7 to 8…
We present a novel technique for determining the microscale AC susceptibility of magnetic materials. We use magnetic field sensing properties of nitrogen-vacancy (\ce{NV-}) centers in diamond to gather quantitative data about the magnetic…
We measure the magnetic damping parameter a in thin film CoFeB and permalloy (Py) nanomagnets at room temperature using ferromagnetic resonance driven by microwave frequency spin-transfer torque. We obtain $\alpha_{CoFeB} = 0.014 \pm 0.003$…
Using density functional theory, we carried out systematic calculations for a series of ultrathin iron layers with thicknesses ranging from one atomic monolayer to eleven monolayers (up to about 1.5 nm). We considered three cases: (1) iron…
Measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of Fe/W(110) films with thickness in the range of 1.6 to 2.4 ML Fe, show that in addition to the large response along the easy axis associated with the Curie transition, there is a much smaller,…
Two-dimensional superconductors have attracted growing interest because of their scientific novelty, structural tunability, and useful properties. Studies of their magnetic responses, however, are often hampered by difficulties to grow…
Ferromagnetic vortices deliver robust out-of-plane magnetization at extremely small scales. Their handling and creation therefore has high potential to become a necessary ingredient for future data storage technologies in order to keep up…
We present a method to measure the magnetic properties of monolayers and ultra-thin films of magnetic material. The method is based on low energy muon spin rotation and $\beta$-detected nuclear magnetic resonance measurements. A spin probe…
Although low-dimensional $S = 1$ antiferromagnets remain of great interest, difficulty in obtaining high-quality single crystals of the newest materials hinders experimental research in this area. Polycrystalline samples are more readily…
Scanning magnetometry with nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond has emerged as a powerful microscopy for studying weak stray field patterns with nanometer resolution. Due to the internal crystal anisotropy of the spin defect, however,…
Magnetic anisotropy is a key parameter of magnetic materials as it decides the response in the presence of an external magnetic field. The artificial tailoring of magnetic anisotropy by manipulating surface and interface morphology is…
We develop a model for ferromagnetic resonance in systems with competing uniaxial and cubic anisotropies. This model applies to (i) magnetic materials with both uniaxial and cubic anisotropies, and (ii) magnetic nanoparticles with effective…
