Abstract

We investigate the magnetoelastic properties of Co₂₅Fe₇₅ and Co₁₀Fe₉₀ thin films by measuring the mechanical properties of a doubly clamped string resonator covered with multilayer stacks containing these films. For the magnetostrictive constants, we find λCo₂₅Fe₇₅ = (-20.68 +/- 0.25) x 10^-6 and λCo₁₀Fe₉₀ = (-9.80 +/- 0.12) x 10^-6 at room temperature, in contrast to the positive magnetostriction previously found in bulk CoFe crystals. Co₂₅Fe₇₅ thin films unite low damping and sizable magnetostriction and are thus a prime candidate for micromechanical magnonic applications, such as sensors and hybrid phonon-magnon systems.
