It is found that with increasing Co content the (Delta) R/R peak shifts towards thicker AG layers. For the Co-Ag/Ag multilayers with low Co contents, (Delta) R/R increases monotonically with increasing magnetic layer thickness, but has a maximum near the magnetic layer thickness of 2.2 nm for the sample having a higher Co content. The peak is thought as a result of the antiferromagnetic (AFM) coupling between the nearest Co clusters in neighboring magnetic layers. In the high field region, the magnetization and the square root of (Delta) R/R vary as a linear function of the reciprocal applied field for all multilayers. In the low field range, they are proportional to the applied field for samples with thin magnetic layers.","PeriodicalId":362287,"journal":{"name":"Thin Film Physics and Applications","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116665091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the strength of the exchange coupling and the oscillation period depend on the details of the Fermi surfaces involved, the overall features appear universal. More complex couplings are observed for magnetic superlattices with chromium spacer layer. This is due to the intrinsic spin density wave of Cr. Extensive synchrotron and neutron scattering experiments have now unraveled the Neel- state of thin Cr layers and proximity effects between Fe and Cr, elucidating the mutual interdependence of Cr spin structure and Fe exchange coupling. In Co/Cr superlattices the structural mismatch between hcp Co and bcc Cr adds another complexity, which affects strongly the magnetic anisotropy. Both, the current status and understanding of the exchange coupling in Fe/Cr(001) and Co/Cr(001) superlattices is briefly reviewed here.","PeriodicalId":362287,"journal":{"name":"Thin Film Physics and Applications","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128187346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subsequent growth results in oriented OCP crystals, and all the crystals show a white semi- globular characters; while [Ca2+] is up to 5 mM, the increasing of mineralization rate results to the rapid nucleation of HAP into some core-like structure and the later growth of platelet-like OCP as the 'shell.'
