Abstract
The temperature dependence of the saturation magnetization of a series of ionimplanted YIG films is presented. The films were implanted with neon ions at an energy of 450 keV; the dose ranged from 2 to 5*1014 ions/cm2. The experimental data can be described by the molecular field theory showing that the ion-implanted part of the film can be approximated as consisting of two regions each having their own magnetization and Curie temperature. The values of these magnetic parameters vary as a function of dose and differ strongly from the values for pure YIG.
