In this work, we investigated the temperature dependence of interface exchange coupling in an Ir-doped Fe2O3/Co system with variations in the Ir–Fe2O3 thickness. Low-temperature perpendicular exchange bias was observed in the samples with an Ir–Fe2O3 thickness of 5 nm or less, when it cooled from 360 K in an external magnetic field of 1 T perpendicular to the sample surface. For 5 nm-thick Ir–Fe2O3, a maximum exchange bias value of 1200 Oe was obtained at 200 K. This is the first report on perpendicular exchange bias of an Fe2O3 thin film coupled with a ferromagnet. Enhancements to the Morin temperature and the magnetic anisotropy of Fe2O3 caused by lattice strain, Ir doping, and the finite-size scaling effect, as well as the high quality (good crystal orientation, small roughness, etc.) of the Fe2O3 film fabricated by our process, are considered to be mostly responsible for the perpendicular exchange bias obtained.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
