摘要

The in-plane magnetic anisotropy in Fe films grown on GaAs(001) was investigated quantitatively by the magneto-optic Kerr effect with a rotating magnetic field. The clear 1/ dFe relation of the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy indicates a surprising volume contribution with easy axis along the GaAs [1 1- 0] direction. Such volume anisotropy was found to be sensitive to the growth temperature and also strongly correlate with the interface anisotropy. Our results may introduce a new aspect for further understanding the origin of uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in Fe/GaAs(001) system.
