Abstract
Various types of Go-based multilayers such as Pt-m-Co-n, Pt-m-[CoPt](n ), Co-m-[CoPd](n) and Co-m-[CoPt](n) were prepared by e-gun evaporatio n. Strong perpendicular anisotropy with considerable coercivity of sim ilar to 1 kOe was found for Pt-Co samples with thin Co layers. Moreove r, the magnetization of Pt-m-[CoPt](n) samples was found to approach t hat of pure Co and in the case of n > 5 enhancement of 30% or more was exhibited. Magnetic properties were found to be strongly influenced b y variations of modulation parameters.
