Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Nanostructure magnetic thin films consisting of magnetic and nonmagnetic layers of several nm thick indicate characteristic magnetic properties such as an interlayer exchange coupling and an exchange bias effect. The causes which generate these magnetic properties were investigated from the magnetic structures induced in the nonmagnetic layers as a clue. The magnetic structures induced in the nonmagnetic or antiferromagnetic layers of nanostructure magnetic thin films such as Fe/Au, Co/Cu, MnIr/CoFe, and CoO/Au/Fe were revealed by resonant X-ray magnetic scattering, which has an element selective nature, and the relation between the induced magnetic structures of nonmagnetic layers and the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic layers was discussed.
