Abstract:The present work emphasizes on the polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) method as a powerful tool to study details of the magnetization of an ultrathin film by combining in-situ and ex-situ PNR measurements as function of the film thickness for the first time. The aim is to separate and estimate the magnetization contributions from the interface, the inner part and the free surface of the film by investigating capped and uncapped films.A series of samples of V / t Fe Fe / V(100) and t Fe Fe / V(100) all grown… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
