Abstract
ABSTRACTThe effect of non-magnetic cap-layers on the amplitudes and the phases of the oscillations of interlayer exchange coupling (IEC) is studied theoretically on ab initio level. We employ a spin-polarized surface Green function technique within the tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method and the Lloyd formulation of the IEC. Application is made to Co/Cu/Co(001) trilayers with Cu-cap layers interfacing vacuum through the dipole barrier.
