Abstract

Coherent epitaxial Fe3O4 layers in the range of 0 to 400 Å have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy on single crystal MgO(100) substrates. The magnetic properties were studied by local magneto-optical Kerr effect experiments on a wedge shaped Fe3O4 layer, by ferromagnetic resonance and SQUID. The results show that the magnetic behavior of the Fe3O4 thin films resembles bulk Fe3O4 in the investigated thickness range.
