Abstract
A simple analytical model is described for the magnetic and attendant giant magnetoresistive properties of thin film multilayers antiferroma gnetically coupled through conducting spacers by both Heisenberg and b iquadratic exchange. Although fully analytical, the model describes in detail the GMR response in both easy and hard directions of a multila yer stack comprising 2N layers, where N is any finite number.
