Abstract:The alteration of the microstructure and magnetic performance of an exchange bias system, induced by ion irradiation, adversely affects the practical application of spintronic/storage devices in extreme environments. Here, we report systematically the correlation between static and dynamic magnetism and microstructure changes in NiFe/NiO exchange-biased bilayers after high-energy Xe+ ion irradiation. The effect of cascade collision induced by irradiation on exchange bias is studied through Monte Carlo simulati… Show more
