Direct experimental study of the microscopic remagnetization mechanism in Co/Cu magnetic superlattices

Using the magneto-optical indicator film technique, the correlation between the magnitude of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and the micromechanism of the magnetization reversal of electrodeposited Co/Cu superlattices are investigated for a range of Cu spacer thicknesses. The multilayers showing v...

description Using the magneto-optical indicator film technique, the correlation between the magnitude of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and the micromechanism of the magnetization reversal of electrodeposited Co/Cu superlattices are investigated for a range of Cu spacer thicknesses. The multilayers showing vanishing GMR exhibit a cooperative spin behavior, which is similar to that exhibited by thin ferromagnetic films with in-plane fourfold anisotropy. In contrast, superlattices with a substantial GMR demonstrate partially coupled non-collinear spin configurations, which are probably responsible for the observed giant magnetoresistance phenomenon.
