Title: Spectroscopic studies of new generation of optical and magneto-optical materials Author: Eva Butková Department / Institute: Institute of Physics of Charles University. Department of Materials Science and Technology of Nagaoka University of Technology. Supervisors of the doctoral thesis: RNDr. Martin Veis, Ph.D., Division of Magneto-optics, Institute of Physics of Charles University Dr. Takayuki Ishibashi, Ph.D., Department of Materials Science and Technology, Nagaoka University of Technology Abstract: In recent years, novel optical and magneto-optical devices have been proposed. This ranges from integrated photonic devices such as 3D holographic displays to magnetic recording, non- reciprocal photonic devices such as optical isolators and circulators or high-energy X-ray/gamma ray detectors. These devices, however, require suitable materials with tunable optical and magneto-optical properties. Presented thesis aims to systematically study such materials, namely GdxFe(100-x), magnetic garnets (Y3-xBixFe5O12, Nd2BiFe(5-x)GaxO12, Nd0.5Bi2.5Fe(5-x)GaxO12) and Ce(0.95-x)HfxCo0.05O(2-δ). Systematic study is carried out by the combination of experimental methods of spectroscopic ellipsometry, magneto-optical Kerr effect spectroscopy and Faraday effect spectroscopy. Experimental data are confronted to...

Studium fyzikálních vlastostí magnetických oxidů spektroskopickými metodami
Zahradník, Martin ; Veis, Martin (advisor) ; Kouřil, Karel (referee)
Two groups of magnetic oxides were investigated in this thesis. Thin films of La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 (LSMO) deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) on SrTiO3 (STO) substrates were characterized by polar and longitudinal magneto-optical (MO) Kerr spectroscopy. Experimental results were compared to theoretical calculations based on the transfer matrix formalism. A very good agreement between experimental and theoretical data revealed high magnetic ordering down to 5 nm of film thickness as well as a mechanism of suppression of double exchange interaction near the LSMO/STO interface. Magnetically doped Ce1-xCoxO2-δ films deposited by PLD on MgO (x = 0.05 and 0.10) and oxidized Si (x = 0.20) substrates were studied by combination of spectroscopic ellipsometry and MO Faraday and Kerr spectroscopy. Both diagonal and off-diagonal permittivity tensor components were obtained and verified by theoretical calculations confronted with experimental data. Diagonal spectra revealed two optical transitions from oxygen to cerium states. Off-diagonal spectra revealed two paramagnetic transitions involving cobalt ions. An essential influence of cobalt doping on the resulting ferromagnetic properties of CeO2 was observed.
