Occasional ‘‘long-range’’ nonequilibrium body-centered-cubic structures in NiFe/Cu spin valves
We describe conventional and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy ~HRTEM! characterization of the microstructure of sputtered NiFe/Cu giant magnetoresistance spin valves ~Cu/FeMn/NiFe/Cu/NiFe! sandwiched between thick Nb contact layers. Six spin valves, sputtered at different temperatures, three with thin ~3 nm! and three with thick ~24 and 30 nm! NiFe layers, were studied. All of t...

Detailed microstructural investigation of ion beam deposited giant magnetoresistance ~GMR! spin valves has been carried out using various techniques of transmission electron microscopy ~TEM! and x-ray diffraction. Two fcc phases, i.e., FeMn and NiFe/Co/Cu/Co/NiFe have been identified in ion-beam deposited Ta ~50 Å!/FeMn ~80 Å!/NiFe~30 Å!/Co~15 Å!/Cu~33 Å!/Co~15 Å!/NiFe~60 Å!/Ta~25 Å!/Si~001! sp...
متن کاملElectric field induced reversible 180° magnetization switching through tuning of interfacial exchange bias along magnetic easy-axis in multiferroic laminates
E-field control of interfacial exchange coupling and deterministic switching of magnetization have been demonstrated in two sets of ferromagnetic(FM)/antiferromagnetic(AFM)/ferroelectric(FE) multiferroic heterostructures, including NiFe/NiCoO/glass/PZN-PT (011) and NiFe/FeMn/glass/PZN-PT (011). We designed this experiment to achieve exchange bias tuning along the magnetic easy axis, which is cr...
متن کاملRotation of the pinning direction in the exchange bias training effect in polycrystalline NiFe/FeMn bilayers.
For polycrystalline NiFe/FeMn bilayers, we have observed and quantified the rotation of the pinning direction in the exchange bias training and recovery effects. During consecutive hysteresis loops, the rotation of the pinning direction strongly depends on the magnetization reversal mechanism of the ferromagnet layer. The interfacial uncompensated magnetic moment of antiferromagnetic grains may...
متن کاملComputer simulation of magnetization flop in magnetic tunnel junctions exchange-biased by synthetic antiferromagnets
Computer simulation in a single domain multilayer model is used to investigate magnetization flop in magnetic tunnel junctions, exchange-biased by pinned synthetic antiferromagnets with the multilayer structure NiFe/AlOx/Co/Ru/Co/ FeMn. The resistance to magnetization flop increases with decreasing cell size due to increased shape anisotropy and hence increased coercivity of the Co layers in th...
