Abstract

Some of the most exciting recent discoveries in magnetic thinfilm research, like the Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) and the oscillatory exchange coupling are related to the properties of multilayers of alternating ferromagnetic and paramagnetic layers. As the interfaces between these layers appear to play an essential role for these phenomena and consequently for the device properties based on them, a detailed study of the magnetic interface properties is needed.
