摘要
The FMR and SQUID investigation of the magnetic anisotropy of Fe/Si multilayers are presented. The multilayers, with various thicknesses of iron and a thick layer of silicon (in order to eliminate the coupling between Fe layers), have been grown by DC sputtering on single crystal GaAs substrates. Low temperature enhancement of the easy-plane anisotropy, especially below 50 K, was observed. This anisotropy seems to be of magnetoelastic origin. The coercivity was shown to decrease with temperature. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
