Abstract
Using the methods of artificial roughening and interfacial doping, we investigated the effects of film roughness and interdiffusion on the f ormation of the magnetic phase of the fee Fe film in the Fe/Co/Cu(100) system. We found that it is the degree of film roughness that determi nes the magnetic phase of the fee Fe film in the 5-11 monolayer thickn ess range, and that the interdiffusion plays no appreciable role in th e formation of the magnetic phase.
