Interfacial magnetic anisotropy and magneto-optic properties of nanoscale magnetic multilayers
Abstract
Experimental and theoretical research on magnetic anisotropy of nanoscale multilayers is reviewed. The importance of interfaces and the occurrence of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy is emphasized. Transition-metal multilayers with nonmagnetic and rare-earth metals are discussed, and similarities in properties are pointed out. A detailed model of perpendicular anisotropy due to single-ion interactions is outlined. Magneto-optic properties of RE/TM multilayers are, in general, similar in magnitude to those of the TM. Plasma-enhancement and related effects in magnetic/metallic bilayers are discussed.
