Abstract:
Vertical magnetization shift (VMS) is a special type of exchange bias effect that may lead to a revolution in future ultrahigh-density magnetic recording technology. However, there are very few reports focusing on the performance of VMS due to the unclear mechanism. In this paper, a giant vertical magnetization shift (ME) of 6.34 emu/g is reported in the Ni50Mn36Ga14 alloy. The VMS can be attributed to small ferromagnetic ordered regions formed by spin reconfiguration after field cooling, which are embedded in an antiferromagnetic matrix. The strong cooling-field dependence, temperature dependence, and training effect all corroborate the presence of spin reconfiguration and its role in the VMS. This work can enrich VMS research and increase its potential in practical applications as well.
