Abstract :
In this article, Fe/Pt multilayers with different thickness on Pt-buffered MgO [110] substrates at 500°C are fabricated. The thickness and surface morphology dependences of the magnetic properties and magnetization reversal behavior in Fe/Pt L10 multilayers are studied. Results show that the in-plane coercivity decreases with increasing film thickness, while uniaxial magnetic anisotropy, and average size of magnetic domains and grain size values increase with total thickness tN of the multilayers.
