摘要
we investigate the temperature dependence of the magnetization reversal process and of spinwaves in epitaxially grown (0 0 1)-oriented [Fe(m)/Au(n)](30) multilayers (m = 1, 2; n = 1-6). Both polar magneto-optic kerr effect and Brillouin light scattering measurements reveal that all investigated multilayers, apart from the [Fe(2)/Au(1)](30)-sample, are magnetized perpendicular to the film plane. The out-of-plane anisotropy constants are obtained. At high temperature, the magnetization curves are well described by an alternating stripe domain structure with free mobile domain walls, and at low temperature by a thermal activation model for the domain wall motion.
