Abstract
We present the results of an investigation into ferrimagnetic resonanc e at room temperature in superlattice heterostructures with alternatin g layers of Y3Fe5O12 and EuBi2Fe5O12 grown by pulsed-laser deposition, We find that in the Y3Fe5O12 layer, the spins always prefer to lie in the plane. In the EuBi2Fe5O12 layer, on the other hand, the spin dire ction switches from normal to the film plane to in-plane as its thickn ess falls below that of the Y3Fe5O12 layer.
