← ScienceWhich risk increases during pulsed laser annealing of ferromagnetic films?
A)Curie temperature threshold overshoot✓
B)Grain boundary pinning reduction
C)Coercivity field gradient reversal
D)Spontaneous magnetic domain nucleation
💡 Explanation
Overshooting the Curie temperature erases ferromagnetic order because thermal energy overcomes exchange interactions, resulting in a paramagnetic state. The mechanism is thermal disordering, therefore exceeding that threshold leads to property degradation rather than other magnetic phenomena at lower temperatures.
