    Observation of a Chirality-Induced Exchange-Bias Effect

    Chiral magnetism that manifests in the existence of skyrmions or chiral domain walls offers an alternative way for creating anisotropies in magnetic materials that might have large potential for application in future spintronic devices. Here we show experimental evidence for an alternative type of in-plane exchange-bias effect present at room temperature that is created from a chiral 90 degrees domain wall at the interface of a ferrimagnetic-ferromagnetic Dy-Co/Ni-Fe bilayer system. The chiral interfacial domain wall forms due to the exchange coupling of Ni-Fe and Dy-Co at the interface and the presence of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in the Dy-Co layer. As a consequence of the preferred chirality of the interfacial domain wall, the sign of the exchange-bias effect can be reversed by changing the perpendicular orientation of the Dy-Co magnetization. The chirality-created tunable exchange bias in Dy-Co/Ni-Fe is very robust against high in-plane magnetic fields (mu H-0 <= 6 T) and does not show any aging effects. Therefore, it overcomes the limitations of conventional exchange-bias systems

The magnetic state of the two-layer structures is shown by electron magnetic resonance to be dependent on the order of depositing magnetic and nonmagnetic layers. The three-layer structures demonstrate the effect of the exchange bias, the value of which is dependent on the bismuth interlayer thickness

It is found that the microwave absorption spectrum of samples has a complicated shape dependent on the nonmagnetic spacer thickness. In the interval of Bi layer thicknesses within 3–15 nm, the interlayer coupling has an antiferromagnetic character. Β© 2015, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd

It has been shown that the synthesis of the Ξ±-MnBi phase in polycrystalline Mn/Bi films begins at a temperature of ~120Β°C and the Mn and Bi layers react completely at 300Β°C. The resulting Ξ±-MnBi(001) samples have a large perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (Ku ≃ 1.5 Γ— 107 erg/cm3) and a coercive force H > HC ~ 3 kOe. In contrast to Mn/Bi, the ferromagnetic Ξ±-MnBi phase in Bi/Mn films is not formed even at annealing processes up to 400Β°C and Mn clusters are formed in a Bi melt. This asymmetry in phase transformations occurs because chemosorbed oxygen existing on the surface of the Mn film in Bi/Mn films suppresses a solid-phase reaction between Mn and Bi. The analysis of the results obtained implies the existence of new low-temperature (~120Β°C) structural transformation in the Mn–Bi system.
