Abstract

Abstract The influence of the nanoscale thicknesses of the ferrimagnetic Tb-Co layers on the structure and magnetic properties of magnetron sputtered Tb-Co/Ti and Tb-Co/Al2O3 magnetic multilayers were comparatively studied. Low angle X-ray diffraction patterns testified to the existence of a well defined layered structure in all the cases under consideration. For all samples, the magnetization was positioned in the plane of the films in the entire investigated temperature interval from 5 to 350 K. The temperature dependence of magnetization of the multilayered structures is the function of the Tb-Co layer thickness. The material of the spacers was shown to significantly influence the magnetic properties of the multilayers.
