摘要
The temperature dependence of the magnetization of thin amorphous Fe(89)Zr(11)/Al(78)Zr(22) layerswas investigated. Dimensionality analysis of the ferromagnetic transition of 15 A thick layers yielded critical exponents characteristic of the 2D XY (planar rotor) model. Above the ordering temperature significant polarizability with an applied field is observed, due to the existence of large-scale magnetic correlations, of which the extent and origin have been determined.
