Abstract
Garnet films can be given orthorhombic anisotropy by growing films with positive magnetostriction constants under compression on (110) ‐oriented substrates. The positive magnetostriction is achieved by the incorporation of Mn3+ ions in (Gd,Lu)3Fe5O12 films. In this way bubble films with a strong in‐plane anisotropy field are obtained. This in‐plane anisotropy increases the maximum velocity of the domain walls to at least 40 000 cm s−1. The domain‐wall mobility in these films is about 1500 cm s−1 Oe−1. The dependence of the domain‐wall velocity on the anisotropy and on the orientation of the domain wall in the film plane is shown.Keywords
