Abstract
AbstractIn this paper, we study contribution of the magnetoelastic anisotropy effect on perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of Co/Pt superlattice thin films. The effective-magnetic anisotropy energy was measured for Co/Pt thin films with a constant Co-layer thickness (4 Å) deposited on silicon substrate by the ultrahigh-vacuum deposition method. As the Pt-layer thickness increases, the effective-magnetic anisotropy energy increases and decreases after showing a maximum at the Pt-layer thickness of 12 Å. This behavior can be explained only by the magnetoelastic anisotropy effect, that is, elastic-strain energy released through the magnetostriction effect with the strain-dependent elastic constants.
