Influence of Water on the Domain Structure of Epitaxy Films of Gadolinium Iron Garnet and Yttrium Iron Garnet

摘要

The effect of moisture on the magnetic domain patterns of singlehyphen;crystal gadolinium iron garnet and yttrium iron garnet was observed. The change in magnetic domain structure and the disappearance of magnetic ``bubble'' domains is related to a reduction of surface stresses by water.
