Ion beam modification of magnetic materials - revisited — •Jürgen Fassbender — Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf

In 2009 the Gaede prize was awarded for the ion induced modification and patterning of thin magnetic films. At that time most of the investigations were dealing with the local modification of magnetic anisotropies and exchange bias phenomena. In recent years we could show that also other magnetic properties, e.g. magnetic relaxation processes [1], can be tailored, but also the ferromagnetic state itself can be created [2] or destroyed depending on the material system under investigation. In particular the latter modifications open a route to the creation of nanomagnets [3] and magnonic crystals [4] by local ion irradiation. A current review will be given.
