Interlayer exchange in synthetic antiferromagnets incorporating thin paramagnetic spacers can be controlled thermally. The spacer provides an additional ferromagnetic contribution that renormalizes the otherwise temperature-independent…

There are different mechanisms proposed to be responsible for the temperature dependence of the interlayer exchange coupling (IEC), namely a smearing out of the spacer or interface Fermi surface and excitations and interactions of spin…

We observe a strong thermally-controlled magnon-mediated interlayer coupling of two ferromagnetic layers via an antiferromagnetic spacer in spin-valve type trilayers. The effect manifests itself as a field-induced coherent switching of the…

Spin torques in magnetic multilayers are produced by spin polarization $P$ of ferromagnetic (F) layers, and increase with growing $P$. The latter, however, cannot exceed the $P=1$ value found in half metals. We study the $P=1$ case to find…

Although ferromagnetism is in general a long-range collective phenomenon, it is possible to induce local spatial variations of magnetic properties in ferromagnetic materials. For example, systematic variation of the exchange coupling…
