Abstract
The features of the ferrimagnetic ordering in multilayered Gd/Co films have been investigated with a torquemeter, vibrating sample and SQUID magnetome ters. and ferromagnetic resonance. A phenomenological analysis of the possi ble mechanisms of magnetic interaction in these structures was made using t he molecular field theory. The model of non-uniform interlayer exchange bet ween Gd and Co layers has some advantages in comparison with the model of p artial mixing of the layers. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
