“…In the same paper, the deposition of polycrystalline thick (50-100 mm) films on gold-coated (1 0 0) Si wafers followed by rapid thermal annealing was reported. More recently, the magneto-optical properties of Ce [13,14] and Bi [15,16] substituted YIG films and YIG/GGG superlattices [17] grown by PLD on (111) GGG substrates have been investigated.…”

“…The combination of low magnetic damping, soft magnetization behavior, and a band gap of 2.66 eV, making it a good insulator, qualify this material for microwave applications such as filters [3,4] or sensors [5,6]. Its low absorption in the optical and near-infrared wavelength region, combined with a magneto-optic Faraday effect (FE), render this material interesting for telecommunication devices such as magneto-optic isolators [7,8].…”

The magnetic and magneto-optic properties of epitaxial CeY 2 Fe 5 O 12 (Ce∶YIG) and Y 3 Fe 5 O 12 (yttrium iron garnet or YIG) thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition on gadolinium gallium garnet substrates are determined. An enhanced Faraday effect is known to result from Ce substitution into the yttrium iron garnet lattice, and here we characterize the magneto-optic Kerr effect, as well as the magnetic hysteresis and ferromagnetic resonance response that result from the Ce substitution. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals a high crystallographic quality for the Ce∶YIG films. Measurements of the magneto-optic Kerr effect for two different wavelengths demonstrate that the Ce∶YIG exhibits an up-to-tenfold increase in Kerr rotation compared to YIG. The Ce∶YIG has a slightly larger magnetic moment, as well as increased magnetic damping and higher magnetic anisotropy compared to YIG with a dependence on the crystalline orientation. By specific cerium substitution in YIG, our results show that the engineering of a large Kerr effect and tailored magnetic anisotropy becomes possible as required for magneto-optically active spintronic devices.

“…In general Garnets containing transition metals and in particular lanthanides are especially attractive for these specific applications. For example, Faraday rotation has been reported to increase in cerium-substituted YIG epitaxial films fabricated by radio frequency (RF) sputtering 3 and liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) 4 , and in cerium-substituted YIG bulk crystals grown by the floating zone 5 and traveling solvent floating zone (TSFZ) methods 6 .…”

In this paper we study the properties of polycrystalline yttrium iron garnet Y 3 Fe 5 O 12 (YIG) thin films deposited by means of a Pulsed Laser Deposition technique (PLD). The films were grown at a substrate temperature of 700-800°C and at various oxygen pressures. Annealing was performed for all the samples and the role of ambient gas as well as of temperature was investigated. The influence of structure and of phase purity was also studied through X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). In addition, compositional analysis was carried out via Rutherford Back Scattering (RBS). Finally, optical transmittance was tested for both amorphous and polycrystalline structures in view of their potential use in the fabrication of magneto-optic integrated devices.
