Abstract

The effect of the exchange coupling strength J between NiFe and FeMn layers on the magnetization process in NiFe/FeMn structures was investigated. Samples with structures of NiFe/impurity (or Cu)/FeMn and NiFe/FeMn were prepared and measured to determine their hysteresis loop shift H p and coercivity H c. It is often assumed that H p is proportional to J. However, our results show that H p dependence on J is not monotonic. A phenomenological model is proposed to explain the results. A better method for estimation of J is also proposed.
