Two identical Co/EuS and Fe/EuS multilayers of six periods each and with individual layers of about 4 nm thick are grown by e-beam evaporation under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. The films show polycrystalline structure with a grain size limited by the individual layer thickness. Both multilayers consist of almost continuous layers with some roughness. The surface peak-to-peak roughness is about 4–5 nm. Magnetization measurements and calculations of the loops based on a Stoner–Wohlfarth-like model allow us to determine the direct antiferromagnetic exchange coupling constant between the 3d metal and EuS at 5 K. Both samples show strong enhancement of the Curie temperature of EuS up to at least 50 K with a EuS magnetization tail, which persists up to about 100 K. The J = 7/2 character of the EuS layers is shown to be responsible for the large Curie temperature enhancement.

ABSTRACTThe magnetic interlayer exchange coupling in Fe/Si-based thin film structures employing sputtered multilayers with variations of Si-alloyed Fe for the magnetic layers and Fe-alloyed Si spacers, as well as wedge-shaped MBE-grown Fe/Si/Fe sandwich samples has been systematically studied. From structural and magnetic analysis it is concluded that ultrathin Si and FexSi100-x (x < 50) spacer layers transform into a crystalline iron suicide with a composition close to Fe50Si50. The exchange coupling mediated by this metallic suicide is antiferromagnetic and depends on the spacer thickness in an exponential, i.e. non-oscillatory, manner with a universial characteristic decay length of 3–4 Å at room temperature. This observation can be qualitatively explained within the framework of a recent coupling theory on the premise that the FeSi interlayer has the metastable CsCl(B2)-structure.

The magnetic and magneto-optical properties of the Co/Si/Co thin-film samples obtained by magnetron sputtering were investigated employing magnetooptical techniques. The thickness of the Co layers was equal to 5 nm, and Si layer thickness varied in the interval of 0.2 to 3.2 nm. The magnetic saturation field of the samples under study was found to oscillate in the magnitude with the change of the Si layer thickness. This result was explained by structural features of the Co/Si/Co multilayers and the presence of the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling between magnetic layers via the silicon interlayer. The peculiarities of the magneto-optical spectra of the Co/Si/Co samples were measured and discussed.
