Abstract
Angular-dependent magnetoresistance (ADMR) of an epitaxial Fe(001) film is investigated with current along hard and easy axes in-plane at different temperatures. The temperature dependences of ordinary magnetoresistance (OMR), anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR), and magnetocrystalline anisotropy magnetoresistance (MMR) in ADMR were determined. As temperature decreases, negative OMR and positive AMR with a twofold symmetry show increasing and decreasing amplitudes, respectively. The amplitude of MMR with twofold and fourfold symmetries is almost invariable with both temperature and magnetic field. Meantime, when current was applied at hard and easy axes, MMR contributes an anti-phase signal to ADMR. Our findings of OMR, AMR, and MMR in the Fe(001) ADMR are of great significance to the understanding of magnetoresistance in magnetic films.
