Exchange bias is often observed when anti-ferromagnetic and ferromagnetic phases coexist. The coexistence of two competing magnetic phases can persist to the lowest temperatures if the disorder-broadened 1st order transition separating them…
We investigated the temperature dependence of the magnetic damping in the exchange biased Pt/ Fe50Mn50 /Fe20Ni80 /SiOx multilayers. In samples having a strong exchange bias, we observed a drastic decrease of the magnetic damping of the FeNi…
It is generally believed that superconductivity and magnetism are two antagonistic long-range phenomena. However, as it was preliminarily highlighted in D. Stamopoulos et al. [Phys. Rev. B 75, 014501 (2007)] and extensively studied in this…
The phenomena of exchange anisotropy is well known in terms of static magnetization properties such as enhanced coercivity and magnetization loop shifts. These effects are primarily associated with effective anisotropies introduced into the…
