Magneto-optical and magnetic properties of multilayered films composed of PdCo alloy and other noble metal (Pd, Pt or Cu) layers are investigated. Multilayered films were prepared by RF magnetron sputtering method. Kerr rotation spectra (275nm-800nm) of Pd/Co multilayered films resemble those of PdCo alloys. In the films composed of PdCo alloy and Pt bilayers, the Kerr rotation increases with increasing Pt content while the perpendicular anisotropy decreases.
