- Following recent theoretical predictions on perpendicular uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy in multilayers of 5 monolayers of Fe and 2 monolayers of W x Re100–x with tetragonally strained components, we have measured the magnetization and detailed atomic structure in a series of such samples with x = 20–80 at%. Although the achieved strain in the WRe layers is smaller than in the modelled case, we do observe a positive uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy of around 0.6 MJ/m3 at 40 K, after accounting for the in-plane shape anisotropy. This causes the out-of-plane saturation field to be reduced considerably compared to a pure Fe thin film, while the saturation magnetization is maintained at a value which is enhanced by at least 30% from what would be expected from the multilayer composition alone. The coercivity is low, on the order of 6 kA/m in all samples.

- The objective of the rare-earth free permanent magnets (REFREEPM) project is to develop a new generation of high-performance permanent magnets (PMs) without rare earths. Our approach is based on modeling using a combinatorial approach together with micromagnetic modeling and the realization of the modeled systems (I) by using a novel production of high-aspect-ratio (> 5) nanostructrures (nanowires, nanorods, and nanoflakes) by exploiting the magnetic shape anisotropy of the constituents that can be produced via chemical nanosynthesis polyol process or electrodeposition, which can be consolidated with novel processes for a new generation of rare-earth free PMs with energy product in the range of 60 kJ/m(3) < (BH)max < 160 kJ/m(3) at room temperature, and (II) by using a high-throughput thin-film synthesis and high-throughput characterization approach to identify promising candidate materials that can be stabilized in a tetragonal or hexagonal structure by epitaxial growth on selected substrates, under various conditions of pressure, stoichiometry, and temperature. In this article, we report the progress so far in selected phases.

- The evolution of bubble domains in a (Co/Pd)(80) multi-layered thin film with perpendicular anisotropy has been studied by Magnetic Force Microscopy in varying magnetic fields. As expected, the bubble domains show a continuous increase of their size with decreasing field. The diameters have been quantitatively evaluated by means of signal deconvolution. To that end the MFM tip was previously calibrated on the same multilayer in zero field state. The resulting bubble diameters and the values for bubble strip-out and collapse fields agree well with the theoretically predicted values for this system, proving the validity of the applied micromagnetic model.
