It is confirmed that collapse-field temperature coefficients

of the SL system was found to be limited in the range of -0.21 ∼ -0.3 %/°C when considering the lattice parameter matching between GGG substrates and films. To obtain garnet films with

of less than -0.2 %/°C, Er and Gd substituted garnet films were studied. YSmErGdLuCaGeIG films with

of -0.10 %/°C and an YSmErCaGeIG films of -0.06 %/°C were obtained. From the resulting of
