R. Krishnan et al., MAGNETIC AND MAGNETOOPTICAL PROPERTIES OF COXNI1-X AU MULTILAYERS/, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 156(1-3), 1996, pp. 167-168
We have prepared CoxNi1-x/Au multilayers and studied their magnetic an
d magneto-optical properties. The surface anisotropy (K-s) for Ni/Au i
s negative but it becomes positive with the addition of Co and increas
es linearly with Co concentration. For x = 0.7 the perpendicular loops
are rectangular when the magnetic layer is 6 Angstrom thick.
