The analysis of the equilibrium state of an arbitrarily oriented epitaxial ferrite film with basic cubic symmetry has been carried out. The equilibrium orientation of the magnetization has been shown to coincide with the direction of the applied magnetic field for (n, n, m), (m, n, 0) and (112) films that are magnetized parallel to the surface along the axes 110, 100 and 111, respectively.
... [Show full abstract] Conditions of the stability of the equilibrium state have been found. For (100), (110) and (111) films a simple technique for determining the magnetic parameters of the films by the use of the spectra of magnetostatic waves has been proposed. For those films the magnetic permeability tensor has been obtained. Different algorithms have been proposed for processing the MSW spectra.
