摘要
We have studied the electronic structure of the interfaces in bet Fe/V (001) superlattices (SL's) grown on MgO(001) with soft-x-ray emission spectroscopy. Two samples with different thicknesses of Fe and V were investigated: [(V)(2)/(Fe)(5)](60) and [(V)(5)/(Fe)(2)](60). The samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction showing high-quality interfaces. Our x-ray L-emission spectra of Fe and V show that the 3d bands are considerably narrowed for the [(V)(5)/(Fe)(2)](60) SL, which is in agreement with first-principles band-structure calculations. Superconducting quantum interference device measurements for the [(V)(5)/(Fe)(2)](60) SL reveal that the total magnetic moment is only 0.65 mu(B) and the Curie temperature is about similar to 200 K, whereas the [(V)2/(Fe)(5)](60) SL shows magnetic properties consistent with bulklike iron layers.
