MICROWAVE PERMEABILITY OF FERROMAGNETIC THIN-FILMS WITH STRIPE DOMAIN-STRUCTURE

We report the observation of multiple permeability peaks for thin ferr omagnetic films, in the 10 MHz to 6 GHz range. This behavior is correl ated with the presence of perpendicular anisotropy and stripe domains. Because the perpendicular anisotropy is much smaller than the saturat ion magnetization of the layer, we propose an adaptation of the classi cal domain mode resonance model to the configuration with oblique magn etization in the stripes.
