Layer selective magnetic moment distribution in an epitaxial double spin valve structure: Si(001)/Cu/FeNi/Cu/Co/Cu/FeNi/Cu

We determine layer selectively the magnetic moments, spin orientations and thicknessess of an epitaxial double spin valve structure, Si(001)/Cu/FeNi/Cu /Co/Cu/FeNi/Cu, using Polarised Neutron Reflectivity (PNR). At saturation, the layer-averaged magnetic moment per Co atom was found to be 1.71 ± 0.0...
