Systems with multiferroic properties are of interest for research since the 60s of the 20th century. In the starting time single crystal multiferroics were in the focus of research. Nowadays layer systems with ferroelectric and ferromagnetic components are also studied.
The work presented deals with different ferrite layers - namely Nickelferrite and Cobaltferrite - on Bariumtitanate (001). Preparation of the ferrite films was done by PLD in UHV. Subsequently they were measured by SQUID in order to obtain magnetization loops. From temperature-dependend data, there seems to be an influence of the phase transitions of Bariumtitanate on the magnetic response of the ferrite films. Altogether Nickelferrite and Cobaltferrite appear to have a small remanent magnetization.
In order to additionally characterize these materials XPS measurements were carried out. Especially the Iron to Oxygen ratio is of interest.
Furthermore XAS measurements of thick ferrite layers were taken into account.
