Abstract:
This research involves studies of the magnetic properties of high quality thin and multilayered magnetic films. Both ultra high vacuum sputtering and molecular beam epitaxy techniques are utilized to prepare the films. Electrical transport is the primary probe to measure the magnetic properties of the films. Of special interest has been the determination of the temperature dependence of the magnetic anisotropy energies of epitaxial iron films and the transport properties of multilayers. In the anisotropy energy work the effects of interfacial strain and morphology have been the focus.
