Abstract

The magnetic and magneto-optic properties of TbCo/Cr thin films were studied. A comparison of the MO properties was made between TbCo thin films with and without Cr underlayer. It was found that Cr underlayer helps to increase the Kerr rotation angle and to enhance the coercivities of TbCo thin films. The effects of the thickness of Cr underlayer and the gas pressure during Cr underlayer preparation on the magnetic and magneto-optic properties of TbCo layers were investigated, as well as the temperature dependence of these properties of TbCo/Cr thin films.
