Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect Enhancement in Co-Ti-O Nanocomposite Films

Article Preview

Abstract:

Co-Ti-O nanogranular films with different volume concentrations of a magnetic phase and Co/Ti-O layered structures with different numbers of layer pairs are studied by the magneto-optical Kerr effect. It is shown that, unlike the case of homogeneous metal films, the magneto-optical spectra of the nanogranular films exhibit resonance with a significant increase in the Kerr rotation angle in the wavelength range 500-700 nm. It is found that the Kerr rotation angle of the Co/Ti-O layer structures in the wavelength range 500-600 nm grows by an order of magnitude as compared to its value for ordinary Co films.
