abstract = {The surface magnetic domain structure of uncapped epitaxial
FeRh/MgO(001) thin films was imaged by in-situ scanning
electron microscopy with polarization analysis (SEMPA) at
various temperatures between 122 and 450 K. This
temperature range covers the temperature-driven
antiferromagnetic-to-ferromagneticphase transition in the
body of the films that was observed in-situ by means of the
more depth-sensitive magneto-optical Kerr effect. The SEMPA
images confirm that the interfacial ferromagnetism
coexisting with the antiferromagnetic phase inside the film
is an intrinsic property of the FeRh(001) surface.
Furthermore, the SEMPA data display a reduction of the
in-plane magnetization occuring well above the phase
transition temperature which, thus, is not related to the
volume expansion at the phase transition. This observation
is interpreted as a spin reorientation of the
surfacemagnetization for which we propose a possible
mechanism based on temperature-dependent tetragonal
distortion due to different thermal expansion coefficients
of MgO and FeRh.},
