Chuprakov S.A., Verhovsky S.V., Krinitsina T.P., Bannikova N.S., Blinov I.V., Milyaev M.A., Popov V.V., Ustinov V.V., Institute of Metal Physics, RU

The structure, the state of interfaces and magnetoresistance of [Co(1.5nm)/Cu(0.9nm)]n superlattices have been studied. The magnetoresistance decreases with the growth of n from 38% for n = 10 to 24% for n = 40. TEM [...]

Exchange Bias Formation Mechanism in (110)Al2O3/Py/Mn/Ta Nanostructures

Blinov I.V., Krinitsina T.P., Matveev S.A., Milyaev M.A., Popov V.V., Ustinov V.V., Institute of Metal Physics, RU

Magnetic multilayer nanostructures possessing exchange bias are of interest for spintronics as effective magnetic field sensors. The mechanism and conditions of the exchange bias formation in (110) Al2O3/Py(30nm)/Mn(100nm)/ Ta(10nm) nanostructures at thermal-magnetic treatment have been [...]
