Magnetic and Structural Properties of Real Metal Layer Interfaces

摘要: The magnetic properties of bulk metals, for instance, their moments and anisotropies, have been extensively studied in the past are now well understood great detail most homogeneous metals alloys. In contrast, ultrathin film interfaces surfaces, which usually differ from properties, generated growing new interest over last decade. This rapid growth has resulted because preparation thin films with defined compositions structures, by molecular beam epitaxy an ultra high vacuum or sputtering techniques, shown enormous progress few years. As a result it even possible to prepare materials crystal structures deviating usual structure material. Examples fcc-iron bcc-cobalt. Simultaneously preparative methods, many subtle experimental methods analysis various developed. addition, modern band calculations provided powerful tool theoretical treatment interfaces.
