Epitaxy of Co-Metal Superilattices
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 February 2011
Abstract
Magnetic superlattices are of great current interest due to the improvement of crystal growth techniques for their preparation and their potential for practical applications in high density magnetic recording. It is apparent that a strong correlation exists between structural and magnetic properties of these supcrlattices. Careful sample preparation and structural characterization arc necessary in order to tailor their magnetic properties. Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) provides the capability for controlled crystal growth and in-situ strtuctoral, chemical and physical characterization. Ex-situ techniques such as X-ray diffraction and high-resolution TEM, also provide insight into interfaces in these structures. Co layers sandwiched with Au, Cu and Pt layers of various thickness are discussed in this paper.
