Abstract

Ag Co multilayers were prepared on various substrates (Si, polyimide and glass) by e-beam evaporation under ultra high vacuum. X-ray diffraction and high resolution electron microscopy studies showed a deterioration of multilayer structure upon reducing the individual Co-layer thickness to 0.5 nm. Furthermore, the saturation field in the parallel field geometry increases, as SQUID magnetometry revealed, while magnetoresistance reaches 16% at room temperature and exceeds 30% at 30 K. Magnetoresistance values were found to depend strongly on individual layer thicknesses as well as on the total film thickness.
