International audience. We report on static and dynamic magneto-optical measurements of the magnetization in ultrathin cobalt films deposited on Au (111). Their large Faraday rotation associated to the squareness of their magnetic hysteresis loop makes these samples very promising as magneto-optical storage media.

Unambiguous evidence of oscillatory magnetic coupling between Co layers in ultrahigh vacuum grown Co/Au(111)/Co trilayers

Archive ouverte | Grolier, V. | CCSD

International audience. The first direct evidence of oscillatory coupling in Co/Au(111)/Co trilayers grown in ultrahigh vacuum is reported. For samples with identical cobalt layer thicknesses, up to three peakjs of ...

Magnetization reversal in ultrathin ferromagnetic films with perpendicular anistropy: Domain observations

Archive ouverte | Pommier, J. | CCSD

International audience. We report on the first observation of magnetic-domain structure during spin reversal under field in ultrathin metallic films with perpendicular anisotropy. The magnetization reversal is eithe...

Magneto-optic depth sensitivity to local magnetization in a simple ultrathin film structure

Archive ouverte | Pénissard, G. | CCSD

International audience. Starting from experimental results, we show how polar magneto-optics are able to probe the magnetization depth profile at a nanometer scale. This is demonstrated in a simple ultrathin film sy...
