Abstract
The magnetization state of electrodeposited Fe/Au(1 1 1) layers is investig ated during the growth using in situ alternating gradient force magnetometr y. It is shown that perpendicular magnetization anisotropy occurs as long a s the thickness t(Fe) < 2 M L. The effect of depositing Cu on top is also s tudied. Results are compared to those obtained with MBE layers and discusse d in the light of preliminary STM investigations of Fe growth. (C) 2001 Els evier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
