Description

The photothermally modulated magnetic resonance (PM-MR) technique was used to study thin films of Gd grown on fused quartz substrates. With this technique it was possible to observe the magnetic phase transitions for samples with different thickness and thermal treatments. Results were correlated with both magnetization and ESR measurements. The effect of the stress induced by the substrate was clearly observed through peak of the PM-MR signal.
