Coercivity and microstructure were investigated in Fe-based multilayers. Coercivity of the Fe layer near the film surface differs slightly from that of the layer near the substrate. The coercivity of a given Fe layer in the multilayer is related to the thickness of the given layer and to the total thickness of the layers between the given layer and the substrate. In addition, coercivity and microstructure are influenced when various metals are combined with Fe.
