Abstract:We investigated the magnetization dynamics of Co/Pt multilayer dots with diameters in the micron scale by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) with a focused beam with submicron dimensions. XMCD measurement with soft and hard X-rays revealed that the magnetic moments of Co and Pt strongly couple and precess with the same cone angle in ferromagnetic resonance conditions. The transient magnetization behavior of Co/Pt multilayer dots was investigated by pump–probe XMCD measurement with a scanning focused X-ra… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
