Engineering magnetic domains in manganite thin films by laser interference

We report on the laser interference (LI) aided conversion from maze-like to stripe-like magnetic domains in La1−xSrxMnO3 (x ∼ 0.3) thin films grown on LaAlO3 substrates. This conversion is attributed to the periodic, local, and rapid heating by LI which facilitates the reconfiguration of magnetic do...
