Domain evolution during the spin-reorientation transition in epitaxial NdCo5 thin films

The domain structure and its changes with temperature were investigated for an epitaxial NdCo _5 thin film with in-plane texture in which a spin-reorientation transition takes place from the easy c -axis via the easy cone to the easy plane. Scanning electron microscopy with polarization analysis rev...
