Controlled growth and magnetic property of a-plane-oriented Mn3Sn thin films

Highly a-plane-oriented Mn3Sn thin films were grown on m-plane sapphire substrates with low-temperature grown Mn3+xSn buffer layers by sputtering deposition technique, and their crystallinity and magnetic properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction and SQUID magnetometer, respectively. The cry...
