Abstract
In epitaxial Fe/Pd double layers the magnetic anisotropies are found t o depend strongly and in a linear way on the Pd layer thickness, d(Pd) , for d(Pd) < 5.5 monolayers. Observed anomalies of the coercive field in the submonolayer Pd coverage regime are caused by laterally inhomo geneous anisotropies due to Pd islands.
