Transversal Kerr Effect Enhancement of Permalloy-Based Shallow Lamellar Magnetoplasmonic Crystals

This work demonstrates spectral dependencies of reflectivity and the transversal Kerr effect of a series of permalloy magnetoplasmonic crystals based on shallow lamellar diffraction gratings with a period of 500 nm, stripe’s width of 250 nm, and diffraction stripes’ heights of 28, 43, 67, and 88 nm....

description This work demonstrates spectral dependencies of reflectivity and the transversal Kerr effect of a series of permalloy magnetoplasmonic crystals based on shallow lamellar diffraction gratings with a period of 500 nm, stripe’s width of 250 nm, and diffraction stripes’ heights of 28, 43, 67, and 88 nm. The fabricated magnetoplasmonic crystals show a monotonic increase of the transversal Kerr effect and the diffraction figure-of-merit with higher diffraction stripes. The maximum achieved modulation value of the transversal Kerr effect was found to be 0.78%, which can be further tuned by the periodicity and stripes width of the magnetoplasmonic crystals.
