摘要
Exchange-coupled 5[Co-(x)/Fe-(3x)]/Co-(x) with x = 5, 10, 15 nm multilayers were grown by UHV electron-beam evaporation. The influence of the interface magnetic anisotropy and interlayer exchange interaction on the magnetic properties was studied by means of Brillouin light scattering from thermally excited spin waves. Both the Damon-Eshbach surface mode of the total multilayer and bulk standing modes are present in the BLS spectra. A careful study of spin waves frequency dependence on the applied magnetic field allowed the determination of the magnetic parameters of the Co/Fe multilayers. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
