Glow Discharge Optical Spectroscopy of Magnetic Bubble Garnet Films.

摘要

A spectrographic study of several magnetic bubble garnet films was done using the Glow Discharge Optical Spectroscopy technique. Argon and krypton were used to sputter the samples for analysis. Lines of most of the elements in the films were successfully identified, but the apparatus used was not sensitive enough to detect trace impurities. Equipment and techniques used and the methods of data reduction are explained in detail. Suggestions for improvements to the system are also included. The study demonstrates the feasibility of using the GDOS method for characterization of rare earth substituted garnet films. (Author)
