“…For recent investigations on such superlattices, see [2,3,4,5,6] and references in [7,8]. These synthetic antiferromagnets are of great interest in modern nanomagnetism, in particular due to their application in spin electronics [9] and high-density recording technologies [10].…”

“…In view of their magnetic states and field-induced reorientation transitions, these antiferromagnetically coupled superlattices can be separated into two groups: (1) Systems with magnetization in the film plane and low (higherorder) anisotropies only, e.g., multilayers grown on (001) faces of cubic substrates [3] with a four-fold anisotropy owing to the magneto-crystalline anisotropies of the materials (for further references and a survey of their magnetic properties, see [8]). In these high symmetry systems, magnetic states are mainly determined under competing influence of bilinear and biquadratic exchange interactions and the intrinsic magnetic anisotropy.…”

“…In situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction and ex situ x-ray diffraction and reflection showed the single-crystalline structure of the samples with interface roughness of about 1 monolayer. The magnetization measurements show inplane fourfold anisotropy [15]. Here we concentrate only on the results obtained for the sample Cr9…”

“…J i andJ i are constants of bilinear and biquadratic exchange interactions, respectively; K i are constants of the in-plane four-fold anisotropy. The functional (1) generalizes similar models considered earlier in a number of studies on exchange [15,16,21,24] and anisotropy [9,15,22,29] effects in planar antiferromagnetic systems. Within this approach the ferromagnetic layers are considered as homogeneously magnetized blocks with constant values of the magnetic interactions.…”
