Abstract
Film structures and magnetic properties in Gd/Fe multilayers sputter-d eposited with the substrate bias (V(B)) have been investigated. The ne gative V(B) sharpened and flattened the layer interfaces and reduced t he sizes of the Fe crystal grain size. The surface anisotropy was larg er for the films with V(B) = -30 V in the crystalline Fe layer region and for the 0 V films in the amorphous Fe layer region.
