Abstract
Ferromagnet/superconductor/ferromagnet (F/S/F) spin-valve systems in the dirty limit, described by Usadel equations, was theoretically investigated with respect to superconducting transition temperature. Their superconducting characteristics strongly depend not only on the mutual orientation and thickness of the ferromagnetic layers, but also on the interface transparency as well as magnetic scattering. Especially, the introduction of magnetic scattering drastically reduces the spin-valve effect in our work. The obtained results could be used to understand experimental values of Δ T c = T c AP − T c P and to provide guidelines for optimizing the experimental systems.
