Microscopic insights into the disorder induced phase transition in FeRh thin films — •Benedikt Eggert1, Alexander Schmeink2,3, Kay Potzger2, Jürgen Lindner2, Jürgen Fassbender2,3, Katharina Ollefs1, Werner Keune1, Rantej Bali2, and Heiko Wende11Faculty of Physics and CENIDE, University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany — 2Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf, Germany — 3Dresden University of Technology, Germany

By employing 57Fe conversion electron Mössbauer spectroscopy, we qualitatively determined the changes of the microscopic Fe moment of chemical disordered epitaxial B2-FeRh(001) thin films, where the chemical disorder has been induced by ion irradiation with Ne+. Apart from the initial magnetic splitting at 25.4 T an additional sextet contribution arises with an hyperfine field of 27.4 T. A comparison between the structural disorder and the temperature induced phase transition shows a similar change of the 57Fe hyperfine field as a function of the macroscopic magnetisation. This gives an indirect indication, that the metamagnetic phase transition proceeds via a defect-driven domain nucleation of ferromagnetic domains in the antiferromagnetic matrix, as it was suggested based on XPEEM and nano-XRD measurements along the phase transition [1]. We would like to thank the Ion Beam Center at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf for providing the necessary facilities and acknowledge the financial support by DFG (WE2623/17-1).
