Magneto-Optical Properties of Rare-Earth Terbium Ferrite-Garnet in the Near the Temperature of the Orientation Phase Transition

Abstract

A model of the rearrangement of the domain structure of the Tb0.2Y2.8Fe5O12 garnet ferrite in the temperature region of the spontaneous reorientation of the easy magnetization axis is proposed, which makes it possible to consistently describe (at a qualitative level) the entire set of experimental results obtained. The latter makes it possible to make a choice in favor of the fluctuation mechanism of nucleation of domains of a new magnetic phase in the process of reorientation of the direction of the easy magnetization axis.
