摘要:

电沉积铁磁/非磁(FM/NM)多层膜的巨磁电阻(GMR)效应已被广泛研究。在GMR效应的大多数应用中,使用由相对少量的连续FM和NM层组成的分层结构。因此,研究巨磁阻多层膜电沉积生长的初始阶段具有重要意义。在目前的工作中,我们已经扩展了我们以前的研究ED GMR多层膜的层状结构的总厚度范围从几个纳米到70纳米。研究了这种多层Co/Cu结构的表面粗糙度和电输运性质的演变。产生包括Co和Cu两者作为起始层或顶层的各种层组合,以便(i)观察第一层的成核差异和(ii)追踪所谓的交换反应的效果。特别注意测量磁电阻MR(H)的场依赖性,以获得磁层中超顺磁区域出现的信息。这被证明是有益的监测层的微观结构的演变在沉积序列的每一步。

英文摘要:

The giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect has been widely investigated on electrodeposited ferromagnetic/non-magnetic (FM/NM) multilayers generally containing a large number of bilayers. In most applications of the GMR effect, layered structures consisting of a relatively small number of consecutive FM and NM layers are used. It is of great interest, therefore, to investigate the initial stages of GMR multilayer film growth by electrodeposition. In the present work we have extended our previous studies on ED GMR multilayers to layered structures with a total thickness ranging from a few nanometers up to 70 nm. The evolution of the surface roughness and electrical transport properties of such ultrathin ED Co/Cu layered structures was investigated. Various layer combinations were produced including both Co and Cu either as starting or top layers in order (i) to see differences in the nucleation of the first layer and (ii) to trace out the effect of the so called exchange reaction. Special attention was paid to measure the field dependence of the magnetoresistance, MR(H) in order to derive information for the appearance of superparamagnetic regions in the magnetic layers. This proved to be helpful for monitoring the evolution of the layer microstructure at each step of the deposition sequence.
