摘要: A Co$_2$FeSi (CFS) film with L2$_1$ structure was irradiated different fluences of 30 keV Ga$^+$ ions. Structural modifications were subsequently studied using the longitudinal (LMOKE) and quadratic (QMOKE) magneto-optical Kerr effect. Both coercivity LMOKE amplitude found to show a similar behavior upon irradiation: they are nearly constant up ion $\approx6\times10^{15}$ ion/cm$^2$, while decrease further increasing finally vanish at fluence $\approx9\times10^{16}$ when sample becomes paramagnetic. However, contrary this behavior, QMOKE signal vanishes even for smallest applied $3\times10^{14}$ ion/cm$^2$. We attribute reduction an irradiation-induced degeneration second or higher order spin-orbit coupling, which already happens small On other hand, high is probably caused by exchange interaction within material.
