Abstract
Here, we study the magnetic properties of compositionally varied TbCo films on Ta and Al seed layers. The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) and magnetization hysteresis (MH) results show the sperimagnetic behavior of Tb for both cases. Further, we introduced a vertical composition gradient in TbCo and measured their AHE and MH response. Ta-based film reveals a magnetic compensation temperature range spanning 150–185 K, while the Al-based film maintains Co-dominance down to 150 K; below this threshold, the coercivity surpasses measurable limits. Both films show a wide temperature window around compensation where the coercivity exceeds 30 kOe values. Notably, the Al-based film manifests a two-order magnitude reduction in anomalous Hall resistance compared to its Ta-based counterpart. The results unravel the role of sublattice alignment and the importance of the seed layer, which could be useful for spintronics applications.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials provides an important forum for the disclosure and discussion of original contributions covering the whole spectrum of topics, from basic magnetism to the technology and applications of magnetic materials. The journal encourages greater interaction between the basic and applied sub-disciplines of magnetism with comprehensive review articles, in addition to full-length contributions. In addition, other categories of contributions are welcome, including Critical Focused issues, Current Perspectives and Outreach to the General Public.
Main Categories:
Full-length articles:
Technically original research documents that report results of value to the communities that comprise the journal audience. The link between chemical, structural and microstructural properties on the one hand and magnetic properties on the other hand are encouraged.
In addition to general topics covering all areas of magnetism and magnetic materials, the full-length articles also include three sub-sections, focusing on Nanomagnetism, Spintronics and Applications.
The sub-section on Nanomagnetism contains articles on magnetic nanoparticles, nanowires, thin films, 2D materials and other nanoscale magnetic materials and their applications.
The sub-section on Spintronics contains articles on magnetoresistance, magnetoimpedance, magneto-optical phenomena, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), and other topics related to spin current control and magneto-transport phenomena. The sub-section on Applications display papers that focus on applications of magnetic materials. The applications need to show a connection to magnetism.
Review articles:
Review articles organize, clarify, and summarize existing major works in the areas covered by the Journal and provide comprehensive citations to the full spectrum of relevant literature.
