Interfacial effects on [(SrMnO3)j/(LaMnO3)k]N multilayers — •Markus Waschk, Paul Zakalek, Alexander Weber, and Thomas Brückel — Jülich Centre for Neutron Science JCNS-2 and Peter Grünberg Institut PGI-4, Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, D-52425 Jülich

On the search for new storage devices, the combination of ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties in metal-oxide layers opens a wide field of new non-volatile memory devices, which show low energy consumption. Here we combine LaMnO3 (LMO) and SrMnO3 (SMO), which both are antiferromagnetic bulk insulators, while a multilayer stack behaves as ferromagnetic conductor for very small bilayer thicknesses. The ferromagnetism of the lower LMO layer is induced by the interface to the upper SMO layer. The influence is strongly dependent on the roughness of the interface, and was not yet observed in the opposite boundary. Our multilayers are grown epitaxially on SrTiO3 (STO) (100) single crystals by an oxygen-assisted Molecular Beam Epitaxy System and alternatively, to compare both preparation methods, by a high pressure oxide sputtering system. Within our very smooth layers with interfacial roughness of the order of a unit cell we study the influence of the interface quality on the magnetic behaviour. We present the preparation method from first steps to a complex multilayer and the results of our in-house characterisation methods. Further we show our first results of a polarized neutron reflectometry study at D-17 of the ILL in Grenoble which show depth resolved the magnetic properties of the single layers and interfaces.
