Growth and magnetic properties of Heusler alloy type Ru2MnZ (Z=Ge, Si) thin films — •Jan Balluff, Markus Meinert, and Günter Reiss — University of Bielefeld

It has been shown by theory and experiment that the Heusler alloy type compounds Ru2MnZ (Z=Ge, Si) show antiferromagnetic phases. Thin films of these alloys were grown to examine their magnetic properties. Due to their antiferromagnetic order they are in particular interesting for many potential applications in the field of spintronics, i.e. using the Exchange Bias. We will show different growth approaches on MgO and thermally oxidized Si substrates. Furthermore, we will discuss magnetic properties of the compounds including the Exchange Bias.
