Modern Magnetic Systems Article Coercivity scaling in antidot lattices in Fe, Ni, and NiFe thin films Gräfe, J., Schütz, G., Goering, E. J. {Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials}, 419:517-520, North-Holland, Amsterdam, 2016
Antidot lattices can be used to artificially engineer magnetic properties in thin films, however, a conclusive model that describes the coercivity enhancement in this class of magnetic nano-structures has so far not been found. We prepared Fe, Ni, and NiFe thin films and patterned each with 21 square antidot lattices with different geometric parameters and measured their hysteretic behavior. On the basis of this extensive dataset we are able to provide a model that can describe both the coercivity scaling over a wide range of geometric lattice parameters and the influence of different materials.

Modern Magnetic Systems Article Combined first-order reversal curve and x-ray microscopy investigation of magnetization reversal mechanisms in hexagonal antidot lattices Gräfe, J., Weigand, M., Stahl, C., Träger, N., Kopp, M., Schütz, G., Goering, E. J., Haering, F., Ziemann, P., Wiedwald, U. {Physical Review B}, 93(1), American Physical Society, Woodbury, NY, 2016
The magnetization reversal in nanoscaled antidot lattices is widely investigated to understand the tunability of the magnetic anisotropy and the coercive field through nanostructuring of thin films. By investigating highly ordered focused ion beam milled antidot lattices with a combination of first-order reversal curves and magnetic x-ray microscopy, we fully elucidate the magnetization reversal along the distinct orientations of a hexagonal antidot lattice. This combination proves especially powerful as all partial steps of this complex magnetization reversal can be identified and subsequently imaged. Through this approach we discovered several additional steps that were neglected in previous studies. Furthermore, by imaging the microscopic magnetization state during each reversal step, we were able to link the coercive and interaction fields determined by the first-order reversal curve method to true microscopic magnetization configurations and determine their origin.

Modern Magnetic Systems Article Geometric control of the magnetization reversal in antidot lattices with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy Gräfe, J., Weigand, M., Träger, N., Schütz, G., Goering, E. J., Skripnik, M., Nowak, U., Haering, F., Ziemann, P., Wiedwald, U. {Physical Review B}, 93(10), American Physical Society, Woodbury, NY, 2016
While the magnetic properties of nanoscaled antidot lattices in in-plane magnetized materials have widely been investigated, much less is known about the microscopic effect of hexagonal antidot lattice patterning on materials with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. By using a combination of first-order reversal curve measurements, magnetic x-ray microscopy, and micromagnetic simulations we elucidate the microscopic origins of the switching field distributions that arise from the introduction of antidot lattices into out-of-plane magnetized GdFe thin films. Depending on the geometric parameters of the antidot lattice we find two regimes with different magnetization reversal processes. For small antidots, the reversal process is dominated by the exchange interaction and domain wall pinning at the antidots drives up the coercivity of the system. On the other hand, for large antidots the dipolar interaction is dominating which leads to fragmentation of the system into very small domains that can be envisaged as a basis for a bit patterned media.

Modern Magnetic Systems Article Magnetic switching of nanoscale antidot lattices Wiedwald, U., Gräfe, J., Lebecki, K. M., Skripnik, M., Haering, F., Schütz, G., Ziemann, P., Goering, E., Nowak, U. {Beilstein Journal of Nanotechnology}, 7:733-750, Beilstein-Institut, Frankfurt am Main, 2016
We investigate the rich magnetic switching properties of nanoscale antidot lattices in the 200 nm regime. In-plane magnetized Fe, Co, and Permalloy (Py) as well as out-of-plane magnetized GdFe antidot films are prepared by a modified nanosphere lithography allowing for non-close packed voids in a magnetic film. We present a magnetometry protocol based on magneto-optical Kerr microscopy elucidating the switching modes using first-order reversal curves. The combination of various magnetometry and magnetic microscopy techniques as well as micromagnetic simulations delivers a thorough understanding of the switching modes. While part of the investigations has been published before, we summarize these results and add significant new insights in the magnetism of exchange-coupled antidot lattices.

We have studied vortex core reversal in a single submicron Permalloy disk by polar Kerr microscopy. A sophisticated lock-in-technique based on repetitive switching of the magnetic vortex core and a continuous calibration allows for a reliable determination of the switching probability. This highly sensitive method facilitates the detection of a change in the magnetic moment of the tiny magnetic vortex core which is about 1.5 × 10−17 A m2. We have investigated vortex core switching caused by excitation of the vortex core gyromode with varying frequencies and amplitudes. The frequency range in which switching occurs was found to broaden with increasing excitation amplitude, whereby the highest frequency in this range shifts stronger to higher frequencies than the lowest frequency to lower frequencies. The experimental results are in good agreement with micromagnetic simulations.

Modern Magnetic Systems Article γ‐Conicein und Coniin aus Geflecktem Schierling Puidokait, M., Graefe, J., Sehl, A., Steinke, K., Siehl, H., Zeller, K., Sicker, D., Berger, S. Chemie in unserer Zeit, 50(6):382-391, 2016
Sokrates ist das bekannteste Opfer eines 399 v.d.Z. in Athen mit dem Schierlingsbecher vollstreckten Todesurteils. Tödlich giftig wirkten darin Alkaloide wie γ‐Conicein und Coniin, die nach Mäuseurin riechen. Schaudern macht, dass dieses Gift sein Opfer allmählich bei vollem Bewusstsein lähmt und dass es kein Gegengift gibt. Auch für Tiere auf der Weide ist Gefleckter Schierling stark giftig. Daher verdrängt die Landwirtschaft den Schierling. Coniin war das erste synthetisierte Alkaloid (Ladenburg, 1886). Schierlingsgifte werden heute nicht medizinisch angewendet. Wir beschreiben die Isolierung von γ‐Conicein und Coniin aus angebautem und wildem Gefleckten Schierling und analysieren ihre Struktur spektroskopisch. Dieser Artikel gehört zur Reihe über die Isolierung und Spektroskopie von Naturstoffen und ergänzt die Kapitel des Buchs “Classics in Spectroscopy” von S. Berger und D. Sicker (Wiley‐VCH 2009). Er beruht auf studentischen Arbeiten ebenso wie auf unserem präparativen Engagement als sie betreuende Wissenschaftler.
