Abstract

A computer modelling of magnetization behavior in ultrathin ferromagnetic films, divided by antiferromagnetic film is carried out. The exchange integral value is different for each ferromagnetic films. One of the films is magnetohard, the second one is magnetosoft. The situation where magnetosoft film has the exchange integral value twice smaller than the value of magnetohard film is investigated. Heisenberg model is used. Calculations are made using Metropolis algorithm. The phase transition temperature is obtained for all three films. The magnetic field was applied along the film plane. The simulation showed that magnetizations of ferromagnetic films first become perpendicular to the direction the staggered magnetization vector in the antiferromagnetic film. With a higher magnetic field value, the magnetization vectors of the ferromagnetic films become mutually perpendicular. Thus, in these multi-layer systems, it is possible to control the orientation of the substances spins, which is an important property for implementing spintronics devices.
