Full textThe polarization of the spin current in a spintronic device is at the origin of magneto-resistive effects that define its functional properties. Typically, in order to spin-polarize a current of electrons two alternatives are used: the electron current crosses either a ferromagnetic metal or a magnetic oxide barrier. Within this thesis, we addressed both alternatives. In a first step, layers of TiO2 diluted magnetic oxide type doped with cobalt were prepared by sputtering. Their structural, morphological and magnetic properties were studied to optimize their potential for integration into a complex spin filter type structure.In a second step, we focused our efforts on the elaboration and the study of single-crystal magnetic tunnel junction based on the full-Heusler alloy Co2FeAl and the MgO (001) tunnel barrier. From a theoretical point of view, the Heusler alloys are expected to be half-metallic. This leads to a spin polarization of 100%. Following a parallel crystallographic and magnetic study of thin Co2FeAl alloy films, we demonstrated a direct correlation between structural and magnetic anisotropies. Using these layers as magnetic electrodes, we elaborated and studied UV micro-structured crystalline magnetic tunnel junctions. Our analysis demonstrates that the spin polarized tunneling and the quality of the half-metallicity of the alloy has a clear dependence on the degree of crystallinity of the system. Beyond the purely experimental aspects, this thesis includes studies of analytical, numerical and ab-initio modeling of the magnetic and electronic properties as well as for the spin polarized transport in the studied systems and devices

Full textACorrelation between structural and magnetic properties of Co₂FeAl thin films and nanostructures Co₂FeAl (CFA) is a very attractive Heusler alloy for spintronic applications. Their structural and magnetic properties depend strongly on the crystalline orientations and the interfaces quality. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is the study effects of the film thickness (dCFA), the substrate (MgO, Si and SrTiO₃(STO)) as well as the annealing temperature (Ta) on these properties. The structural analysis revealed a good epitaxial growth for films deposited on MgO and STO, in contrast to the Si substrate. The chemical order varies from the partially ordered B2 phase to the disordered A2 phase as dCFA or Ta decreases, regardless of the substrate. The ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) measurements show the superposition of a uniaxial and fourfold anisotropies for films grown on MgO and STO and only a weak uniaxial anisotropy for the samples grown on Si. The fourfold anisotropy is directly correlated to the crystal structure of the samples. The FMR and Brillouin light scattering measurements reveal the presence of a large negative perpendicular uniaxial anisotropy induced by CFA/MgO interface, which increases with 1/dCFA and with Ta. The relaxation mechanisms have carefully been studied and Gilbert damping coefficients of 0.0011 have been measured making CFA as a potential candidate for spin transfer torque-based devices. Finally, the study of submicron arrays of stripe obtained by patterning of the continuous CFA films reveals a spin waves quantization due to the finite stripes width

Full textImprovements in thin film elaboration methods and a deeper understanding of condensed matter physics have led to new exciting phenomena in spin electronics (spintronics). In particular, magnetization reversal by spin-orbit and spin-transfer torque as well as the development of spin waves based devices have placed the Gilbert magnetic damping coefficient as a key parameter for future data storage and information processing technologies. The prediction of ultralow magnetic damping in Co2MnZ Heusler half-metal magnets is explored in this study and the damping response is shown to be linked to the underlying electronic structure. By substitution of the Z element in high quality Co2MnZ (Z=Al, Si, Ga, Ge, Sn and Sb) epitaxial thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy, electronic properties such as the minority-spin band gap, Fermi energy position in the band gap, and spin polarization can be tuned and the consequences for magnetization dynamics analyzed. Experimental results allow us to directly explore the interplay of spin polarization, spin gap and Fermi energy position, with the magnetic damping obtained in these films (together with predictions from ab initio calculations). The ultralow magnetic damping coefficients measured in the range from 4.1 x10-4 to 9 x10-4 for Co2MnSi, Co2MnGe, Co2MnSn and Co2MnSb are the lowest values ever reported in conductive layers and offer a clear experimental demonstration of theoretical predictions on half metal magnetic Heusler compounds. Then, the relation between the Gilbert damping and the ultrafast demagnetization time in quaternary Co2MnSixAl1-x compounds with a tunable spin polarization is analyzed. This way, it is possible to confront theoretical models unifying those two quantities that live in different timescales. Finally, structural and magnetic properties of Mn3Ga/Co2YZ Heusler superlattices are investigated in order to combine ultralow Gilbert damping coefficient, minority spin band gap and perpendicularly magnetized heterostructures, another requirement for low energy consumption devices. Through the present work, we aim to prove that Heusler compounds provide an excellent playground to study fundamental magnetism and offer a pathway for future materials design

Full textThis thesis fits in the framework of magnetic materials for microwave applications. The magnetic materials most commonly used in microwave devices are ferrites, especially garnets, which have a very low magnetic damping (about 0. 0001). The needs of miniaturization in current technologies bring some problems related to the integration of ferrites in microwave components. Theses materials, containing iron oxides, generally require very high deposition temperatures that may damage other parts within a same circuit. One solution lies in the use of ferromagnetic materials, which can be deposited at moderate temperatures. However, this type of material usually has high damping factors making them incompatible with the characteristics desired in microwave components. In this context, the Heusler alloys are particularly attractive. Indeed, the latter have high magnetizations and Curie temperatures, and ab initio calculations predict extremely low damping factors. The first step of this work was to develop a Ferromagnetic Resonance setup capable of studying materials in the microwave domain. This step was followed by the preparation of epitaxial thin film of Co2MnSi, by sputtering deposition, on MgO (001) and MgO/Cr (001) substrates. A thorough structural study (RHEED, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy) allowed verifying the high crystalline quality of samples. Their magnetic properties were studied by static and dynamic techniques in order to provide a complete characterization of their magnetic parameters as a function of thickness: saturation magnetization, exchange constant, damping factor, gyromagnetic ratio, anisotropy constants. The samples studied show low magnetic damping factors ranging between 0. 002 and 0. 007. The magnetic parameters (magnetocrystalline anisotropy, gyromagnetic factor) are strongly modified with the implementation of a Cr buffer layer. This suggests that the magnetic properties of Heusler alloys thin films are closely related to strains at interfaces. This work shows that Co2MnSi could constitute a building bloc for the realization of microwave components. The buffer layer engineering is set to be a key to making these alloys compatible with the needs of current technologies. This work should make possible the study of more complex systems such as magnonic crystals based on Heusler alloys

Full textThe Heusler alloy family contains several compounds considered to be prime candidates to be integrated as magnetic electrode into high-?performance spintronic devices. Some of these alloys indeed exhibit high Curie temperatures, have been predicted theoretically to be half-?metallic, and display a low Gilbert damping parameter. Nevertheless, the experimental results are generally less convincing than those reported numerically. The first part of this thesis is devoted to the ab initio study of hypotheses that are usually used to explain the differences between experimental and theoretical results. Calculations, based on the density functional theory, are then used to understand the impact of structural defects (partial chemical disorders, tetragonal deformation, vacancies) on the static and dynamic electronic and magnetic properties of Co-?based bulk full-Heusler alloys (Co2MnSi, Co2MnSn, Co2MnAl et Co2FeAl). In the second part of this thesis we propose to study, with the same numerical tools, the physical characteristics of "all-Heusler" heterostructures promising for spintronics and rare in the literature. We have focused on the variations of electronic properties in the vicinity of the "half-metal/insulator" (Fe2TiSi/Co2MnSi, CoTiAs/Co2MnSi) or "half-metal/non-magnetic metal" (Fe2VAl/Co2MnSi, RhNiSi/Co2MnSi) interfaces composing the studied multilayers. The obtained results highlight the interest of these structures for spintronic devices such as spin valves or magnetic tunnel junctions

Full textThe requirement of a sustainable and green energy is increasing with the rapid rise in human population and industrialization. The traditional way of utilizing fossil fuels can be replaced by thermoelectric devices which can convert thewasted heat from various sources into electrical energy. However, the present day thermoelectric devices are limited due to their low efficiency, toxic nature and high costs. The current challenge in this field is to design highly efficient thermoelectric materials which are environment friendly and available at a reasonable price. Among promising thermoelectric materials forpower generation, the Heusler-type Fe2VAl attained a great attention due to its semiconducting nature over a wide temperature range up to 1173 K. Nonetheless, the thermoelectric use of this compound is jeopardized by its high thermalconductivity. The aim of this thesis was to find new strategies in enhancing the thermoelectric efficiency of Fe2VAl with the aid of ab initio calculations and experimental studies. First principles calculations have been performed using the computer code VASP (Vienna ab-initio Simulation Package) based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT) to study the electronic structure of the full Heusler compound Fe2VAl. The formation energy of the intrinsic point defects such as vacancies, antisites and interstitials is analyzed and antisite defects are found to be the most probable defects. With the aid of the BoltzTraP code based on the Boltzmann transport theory within the constant relaxation time approach, the electronic transport properties of Fe2VAl taking into account the effect of the most favorable defects have been calculated. The presenceof defects does not lead to a significant improvement of the Seebeck coefficient. The lattice thermal conductivities of Fe2VAl, both in pristine form and in presence of its most stable antisite defect (Al V) have been analyzed by ShengBTE and the recently developed code almaBTE. A significant enhancement of the figure of merit (also known as ZT) is found with the presence of antisite defects. Nanostructured Fe2VAl compounds have been synthesized in parallel by the ball milling technique. The constituent elements have been milled together with different contents of NaCl in order to obtain porous samples. The powders have been later washed thoroughly to remove the traces of NaCl. All the powders have been consolidated using Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS). This novel idea is quite successful in achieving a porosity of around 15–20% with NaCl whereas a porosity of ~5 % is found in the case of the samples without NaCl. The thermoelectric efficiency is enhanced remarkably in the porous samples. Nevertheless, the samples milled with 15 % porosity exhibit higher ZT valuesthan the samples with 20 % porosity. Thus, it is crucial to confine and control the porosity to obtain high thermoelectric efficiencies. Our study thus clearly shows that the thermoelectric performance can be enhanced by off-stoichiometry and the modification of the morphology of the samples.Key words: Fe2VAl, materials, Heusler compounds, thermoelectricity, ab initio calculations, formation enthalpy, defects, ball milling,porosity

Full textSpin transfer is one way of switching the magnetization of a layer in a magnetic tunnel junction. The current needed at this task depends on the materials and in the current context, consume less became an important issue. Materials with a high spin polarization and a low magnetic damping are one solution of this problem. They are called half metal ferromagnets. Because of the existence of a pseudo-gap in the minority spin channel at the Fermi energy, these compounds show a 100% spin polarization and an extremely low magnetic damping. In theory, some Heusler, such as Co1.5Fe1.5Ge and Co2MnSi, possess theses properties if they crystallize in the good crystallographic phase. In practice, there is strong indication of this behavior by mean of indirect techniques. However, no direct evidence of this pseudo-gap has been observed. It is in this context that this thesis is. After having determined growth conditions of Co1.5Fe1.5Ge, by mean of several techniques and especially by anomalous diffraction, we determined the complete chemical order which is the one we were looking for. Magnetic properties measurements show results in agreement with the theory. But the use of this compound in magnetic tunnel junctions shows low tunnel magnetoresistance. Spin resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements explain very well these results. In the same spirit, we started to study Co2MnSi which seems more promising as this pseudo-gap and low magnetic damping have been observed
