We report on a strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in [CoFe 0.4nm/Pd t]6 (t = 1.0-2.0 nm) multilayers fabricated by DC sputtering in a ultrahigh vacuum chamber. Saturation magnetization, $M_s$, and uniaxial anisotropy, $K_u$, of the…
We study the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) of the CoFeB/MgO bilayers in contact with W, Ta, IrMn and Ti which has been suggested as the spin-orbit-torque-related underlayers. The saturation magnetization of the CoFeB depends on…
The interface stresses at of the solid-melt interface are, in general, anisotropic. The anisotropy in the interfacial stress can be evaluated using molecular dynamics (MD) and phase field crystal (PFC) models. In this paper, we report our…

Spinel-type CoFe$_2$O$_4$ is a ferrimagnetic insulator with the N\'eel temperature exceeding 790 K, and shows a strong cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) in bulk materials. However, when a CoFe$_2$O$_4$ film is grown on other…

We introduce a minimal interface-scattering mechanism that produces a sizable anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) in metal/ferromagnet bilayers (e.g., Pt/YIG) without invoking bulk spin or orbital Hall currents. In a $\delta$-layer model…
