Magnetoelasticity in dysprosium-scandium superlattices

Magnetoelasticity in dysprosium-scandium superlattices
Magnetoelasticity in dysprosium-scandium superlattices
We have studied the magnetoelastic stress parameter, Bγ,2, associated with the shear deformation within the basal plane of the (0 0 0 1) Dy (20 Å)/Sc (t=20–60 Å) superlattices (SLs). The extrapolated Bγ,2(0 K) values change from 1.45 to 0.9 GPa when t changes from 60 to 20 Å, respectively. All SLs show a thermal behavior of Bγ,2 affected by volume and interfacial contributions. The scandium thickness dependence of the volume contribution shows a surprisingly logarithmic behavior that indicates the existence of dislocations in the Dy blocks.

Abstract

We have studied the magnetoelastic stress parameter, Bγ,2, associated with the shear deformation within the basal plane of the (0 0 0 1) Dy (20 Å)/Sc (t=20–60 Å) superlattices (SLs). The extrapolated Bγ,2(0 K) values change from 1.45 to 0.9 GPa when t changes from 60 to 20 Å, respectively. All SLs show a thermal behavior of Bγ,2 affected by volume and interfacial contributions. The scandium thickness dependence of the volume contribution shows a surprisingly logarithmic behavior that indicates the existence of dislocations in the Dy blocks.
