G. Pan et al., DOMAIN PROCESSES AND HIGH-FREQUENCY PERMEABILITY OF LAMINATED CO91NB6ZR3 SIO2 NARROW STRIPS/, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 33(5), 1997, pp. 2857-2859
High resolution and real time domain images and magnetisation reversal
processes were observed by Lorentz Microscopy with in-situ applied ma
gnetic fields for patterned narrow strips of single layer and double l
ayer CoNbZr films. Results were compared with the initial high frequen
cy permeability measurement of the narrow strips. It was revealed that
the domain structures and magnetisation reversal processes were disti
nctively different at the edge and at the central part of wide strips.
The size of the edge domains was typically 3 similar to 4 mu m-wide.
Double walls were observed in dual-layer strips indicating some. magne
tostatic coupling between sublayers. The easy-axis state was sustained
by double layer lamination for 3 mu m-wide strips. Distinct magnetisa
tion reversal processes and domain structures were observed for single
layer and double layer narrow strips.
