    Notes: Spin-dependent tunnel junctions, Co/Al2O3/Co (CoFe)/NiFe, were fabricated to investigate the effect of the additional Co (CoFe) interlayer on tunneling magnetoresistance. The quality of the junction was examined with a cross-sectional image generated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and an electron energy loss spectra map. For junctions with a Co (CoFe) interlayer in the top electrode thinner than 0.8 nm (1.0 nm), the tunneling magnetoresistance ratio increases with interlayer thickness. For junctions with a 0.8–2.0 nm Co (1.0–2.0 nm CoFe) interlayer in the top electrode, the tunneling magnetoresistance ratio reaches the maximum value of 2.16 (4.45) times that without any Co (CoFe) interlayer in the top electrode. The increase in the tunneling magnetoresistance ratio may be attributed to the increased effective ferromagnetic electrode polarization and the various spin-flip scattering factors. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: With better than 1% control of alloy composition, binary alloy films CoxNi1−x/Cu(100) with x≤10% were prepared for the study of the spin-reorientation transition at variations of composition, thickness, and temperature. Only the films with a Co concentration less than 10% reveal the spin-reorientation with the film thickness. The critical thickness for the spin-reorientation transition was shifted drastically from 7.5 to 17.5 monolayers for a Co concentration variation from 0% to 8%. These findings indicate a strong influence of the composition on the magnetoelastic anisotropy. A kind of temperature-driven spin-reorientation from in-plane to perpendicular with increasing temperature was also found. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The trilayers 10 nm NiO(AF)/X Cu/10 nm NiFe(FM) were prepared for the study on the temperature effect in interlayer exchange bias coupling. The characteristic behavior of the interlayer exchange bias coupling as a function the spacer thickness was shown to strongly depend on the temperature. A monotonic decrease of the exchange bias field with increasing Cu spacer layer was observed at low temperature around 20 K. At higher temperatures (about 145 K), a clear oscillatory evolution of the exchange bias field with the Cu thickness was found even without background subtraction. The temperature-dependent feature of the interlayer exchange bias coupling was also found to vary significantly with different Cu thickness. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The magnetic and structural properties were investigated for the 2 ML Co/Cu(100) films grown at various temperatures from 125 to 350 K. By precisely controlling the film thickness, the influence of thickness on Curie temperature (TC) due to the finite size effect can be excluded. The Curie temperature of the 2 ML Co keeps almost invariant for the growth temperature (Tg) below 250 K, and drops drastically at Tg higher than 275 K. For Tg=340 K, TC dropped to 170 K which is only about half of 325 K for Tg=125 K. Accompanied with the increase of TC for the films grown at lower temperatures, the remanent Kerr signal as well as coercivity were enhanced. According to a simple theoretical estimation, the change of TC due to the variation of the magnetization and anisotropy was found to be consistent with the experimental results. The enhancement in TC or magnetization and anisotropy with various Tg should be traced back to the presence of island growth in the films grown at lower temperatures. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
