R. Coehoorn et al., THE PHASE OF THE OSCILLATORY EXCHANGE COUPLING IN COHERENT FCC (FE-CO-NI) CU(001) MULTILAYERS/, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 121(1-3), 1993, pp. 266-269
The Cu thicknesses at which sputter-deposited coherent fcc (Fe-Co-Ni)/
Cu (001) multilayers display the first, sharp, antiferromagnetic maxim
um in the interlayer exchange coupling were found to depend markedly o
n the ferromagnetic alloy concentration. The entire fcc part of the te
rnary Fe-Co-Ni system was investigated. The relevance to the theory of
interlayer exchange is discussed.
