Single wire and ensemble measurements on NixCo1-x nanowires for the determination of switching field distributions — •Philip Sergelius1, Tim Böhnert1, Stephan Martens1, Victor Vega Martinez2, Kornelius Nielsch1, and Detlef Görlitz11Institute of Applied Physics, University of Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany. — 2Depto.

NixCo1-x nanowires with x varying between 0.05 and 0.77 have been synthesized by potentiostatic electrodeposition into self ordered Al2O3 Membranes (AAO) by hard anodization. The variation of the Ni:Co composition in the alloyed nanowires of appr. 20μm length, 150nm diameter and 305 nm spacing allows for a tuning of the switching field along the wire axes between 190 Oe and 400 Oe.

We performed First Order Reversal Curve (FORC) measurements on the nanowire ensembles in a VSM (Quantum Design VersaLab). The FORC analysis yields the distribution of the coercive fields for all nanowires in the membrane and the distribution of their interaction fields. Additionally, MOKE analyses utilizing a NanoMOKE2TM (Durham Magneto Optics Ltd) were performed on up to 100 singular wires of each ensamble in order to have adequate statistics for the distribution of coercivities ranging from 150 Oe to 450 Oe. The obtained coercivity distributions with widths of appr. 18 % from the FORC and MOKE measurements are discussed and compared revealing the impact of different interaction fields in the investigated templates.
