Abstract

The magnetic phase transitions in Cu/Co/Cu/Ni/Cu(100) and Cu/Co/Fe/Ni/Cu(100) were investigated by PEEM. It was found that a coupled magnetic sandwich exhibits three types of magnetic phase transitions. A magnetic phase diagram was constructed in the Co-Ni thickness plane. Monte Carlo simulations on two coupled 2D Ising lattices successfully reproduced the experimental observations.
