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…
High fraction of the surface atoms considerably enhances the influence of size and shape on the magnetic and electronic properties of nanoparticles. Shape effects in ferromagnetic nanoparticles are well understood and allow to set and…
The magnetic properties of thin-film Pd/Fe/Pd trilayers in which an embedded ~1.5 A-thick ultrathin layer of Fe induces ferromagnetism in the surrounding Pd have been investigated. The thickness of the ferromagnetic trilayer is controlled…
Magnetic materials are usually characterized by anisotropy energy barriers which dictate the time scale of the magnetization decay and consequently the magnetic stability of the sample. Here we present a unified description, which includes…
We investigate to what extent the magnetic properties of deposited nanostructures can be influenced by selecting as a support different surfaces of the same substrate material. Fully relativistic ab initio calculations were performed for Co…
Thin films of the half doped manganite Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3 were grown on (100) oriented MgO substrates by pulsed laser deposition technique. In order to study the effect of strain on the magnetic field induced charge order melting, films of…
We have performed a systematic investigation of magnetotransport of a series of as-grown and annealed Ga1-xMnxAs samples with 0.011 <= x <= 0.09. We find that the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) generally decreases with increasing…
Thermal dust polarization is a powerful tool to probe magnetic fields ($\textbf{B}$) and grain properties. However, a systematic study of the dependence of dust polarization on grain properties in protostellar environments is not yet…
The formation of pyramid-like structures in thin-film growth on substrates with a quadratic symmetry, e.g., {001} surfaces, is shown to exhibit anisotropic scaling as there exist two length scales with different time dependences. Analytical…
The magnetic properties of (Ga,Mn)As thin films depend on both the Mn doping level and the carrier concentration. Using a post growth hydrogenation process we show that it is possible to decrease the hole density from 1.1021 cm-3 to <1017…
The paper investigates the influence of the magnetic field on the behavior of 180-degree domain boundaries in a uniaxial ferromagnetic film with inhomogeneous magnetoelectric interaction. It is shown that, depending on the magnitude and…
The influence of a uniform external magnetic field on the dynamical spin response of cuprate superconductors in the superconducting state is studied based on the kinetic energy driven superconducting mechanism. It is shown that the magnetic…
It has been demonstrated that magnetocrystalline anisotropies in (Ga,Mn)As are sensitive to lattice strains as small as 10^-4 and that strain can be controlled by lattice parameter engineering during growth, through post growth lithography,…
By studying coupled ferro- (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) thin film systems, we obtain an in-plane magnetic reorientation as a function of temperature and FM film thickness. The interlayer exchange coupling causes a uniaxial anisotropy,…
Using the angular dependence of the planar Hall effect in GaMnAs ferromagnetic films, we were able to determine the distribution of magnetic domain pinning fields in this material. Interestingly, there is a major difference between the…
We present an investigation of the magnetic behavior of epitaxial MnAs films grown on GaAs(100). We address the dependence of the magnetic moment, ferromagnetic transition temperature ($T_c$) and magnetocrystalline anisotropy constants on…
Dust grains influence many aspects of star formation, including planet formation, opacities for radiative transfer, chemistry, and the magnetic field via Ohmic, Hall, and ambipolar diffusion. The size distribution of the dust grains is the…
The flow of grains through narrow apertures posses an extraordinary challenge: clogging. Strategies to alleviate the effect of clogging, such as the use of external vibration, are always part of the design of machinery for the handling of…
We study the local and global roughness scaling in growth models with grains at the film surfaces. The local roughness, measured as a function of window size r, shows a crossover at a characteristic length r_c, from a rapid increase with…
We probe the effects of particle shape on the global and local behavior of a two-dimensional granular pillar, acting as a proxy for a disordered solid, under uniaxial compression. This geometry allows for direct measurement of global…
