The variation of linewidth in exchange coupled bilayer films with stress anisotropy

Abstract

The frequency linewidth and the field linewidth in ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic bilayer films with stress anisotropy have been investigated by using ferromagnetic resonance method. The effects of the stress anisotropy for in-plane anisotropy, weak and strong perpendicular anisotropy on linewidth are observed. It is found that the frequency and the field linewidth all increase for in-plane and weak perpendicular anisotropy, as the stress anisotropy field increases. And furthermore, the stress anisotropy field affects obviously the frequency and the field linewidth for unsaturation field.
