Exploration of the Magnetic Properties of ZrCo:Co Bilayer Films: Effects of the Thickness of the Co Layer on the Anisotropy and Magnetic Interaction Parameters

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] Among recent advances in this area, magnetic nanofilms have attracted particular interest, particularly those that integrate hard and soft magnetic phases in an interphase configuration. [8,9] This approach aims to optimize the magnetic properties of permanent thin films, offering prospects for significant improvement in this area. A fundamental aspect of these systems is the exchange interaction between hard and soft magnetic phases.…”

“…This observation is crucial to understand how the morphology and magnetic properties evolve with layer thickness and preparation conditions. These studies focused in particular on systems based on SmCo, SmFe, FePt, CoFe(Cu), CoFeNi, Fe, or Co. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][20][21][22] Films based on the ZrCo alloy represent a significant advance in the field of magnetic materials, due to their application potential in cutting-edge areas. [23][24][25][26][27][28][29] These films provide a unique platform to study the interactions between different magnetic phases, combining hard and soft magnetic layers.…”

Giant Magnetoresistance of the Electrodeposited FeCoCu/Cu Multilayers: Metal Oxide Formation with NaOH in the Electrolyte

“…The multilayered (or granular multilayer) thin films have an anisotropy field and high saturation magnetization, and therefore, they are preferred for magnetic devices and sensors. These multilayers exhibit giant magnetoresistance (GMR) due to the layered form [5,6]. The GMR is a resistivity change under the application of a magnetic field, and due to the spin-dependent scattering, the electron spins play an important role that passes through a layered form which consists of two ferromagnetic layers separated by a non-magnetic layer.…”
