Abstract

We present a ferromagnetic resonance study of the dynamic properties of a set of amorphous Fe-B films deposited on Corning Glass® and MgO (001) substrates, either with or without capping. We show that the in plane anisotropy of the MgO grown films contains both uniaxial and biaxial components whereas it is just uniaxial for those grown on glass. The angular dependence of the linewidth strongly differs in terms of symmetry and magnitude depending on the substrate and capping. We discuss the role of the interfaces on the magnetization damping and the generation of the anisotropy. We obtained values of the intrinsic damping parameters comparable to the lowest ones reported for amorphous films of similar compositions.

  • The damping parameter α in the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation is directly related to the ferromagnetic resonance peaks’s linewidth ΔH = ΔHo + ΔHm + ΔHG + ΔHTMS.[3]
