Research Abstract

1.An ultrahigh-vacuum main chamber for a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) apparatus was designed and constructed. A He-gas leak test showed no leak in the chamber. A 24-h baking resulted in an ultimate pressure of 4 x 10^<-11> Torr using a 500 l/s ion pump as well as a 400 l/s turbo-molecular pump.
2.An electron gun for reflection high energy electron difraction (RHEED) and a RHEED power supply were designed and fabricated. The beam-spot diameter was found to be less than the designed value of 90mum.
3.A sample-substrate preparation chamber was designed and fabricated. An O-ring seal mechanism allows a rapid exchange of sample substrates.
4.An MBE system was completed by incorporating in the main chamber, an e-beam evaporation gun, Knudesen cells, a quartz-oscillating thickness monitor, a RHEED gun, vacuum pumps, and the sample-substrate preparation chamber.
5.Co/Pt multilayrs were prepared. Low-angle and high-angle x-ray diffraction measurements were made for the multilayrs. Designed superlattices were confirmed. Torque measurements were made, confirming perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in samples with very thin Co-layr thickness.
Core-level magnetic circular dichroism measurements were made for the multilayrs using circularly polarized synchrotron radiation. The results showed an enhancement of the Co orbital magnetic moment and a narrowing of the Co 3d band for samples with very thin Co-layr thickness. It was also found that magnetic moments, coupled ferromagnetically with the Co magnetic moments, were induced on Pt atoms.
