摘要：

We have determined all the relevant magnetic anisotropy fields of epitaxial FeNi/Cu/Co spin-valve structures by Brillouin light scattering (BLS). A dominant and reproducible fourfold anisotropy was found in the cobalt layer, while a weak in-plane anisotropy was observed for the permalloy layer. BLS and magnetometry measurements have been performed over the temperature range of 10-300 K.
