China) Abstract: An uncoated TbFeCo film on glass substrate exposed to dry air for two years is studied using magneto-optical polar Kerr spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The out-of-plane hysteresis loop by VSM is found slanted and an in-plane loop observable. The Kerr loop measured from the exposed surface is also slanted compared to that measured from the substrate-contacted surface, which indicates that the exposed surface is oxidized. So a bilayer structure of the film is proposed. When pump laser is switched on, the Kerr loops measured from both surfaces at the delay time of -5 ps become anomalous, showing the occurrence of magnetization reversal across magnetization compensation temperature. Unlike that measured from the substrate-contacted surface, Femtosecond laser-induced magnetization dynamics measured from the exposed surface does not show magnetization reversal crossing zero magnetization. This can be explained by the bilayer structure as the compensation effect of demagnetization recovery of the oxidized layer on magnetization reversal of perpendicularly anisotropic TbFeCo layer across magnetization compensation temperature. Above experimental results show that the uncoated TbFeCo film cannot resist oxidation in dry air at room temperature for two years while the SiO2-coated surface can do so for over two years.
