Abstract: | NiO/Co and NiO/Ni80Fe20 bilayers were prepared at 293 onto SiO2(1 0 1)/Si(1 1 1) and glass substrates using UHV (5×10−10 mbar) RF/DC magnetron sputtering. Results on magnetic measurements showed that the exchange biasing and coercive fields are inversely proportional to the Co and Ni80Fe20 (Py) layer thickness down to 2 nm. A maximal RT coupling energy for the NiO–Co and NiO–Py interface was estimated as 0.04 and 0.03 mJ/m2 for the samples prepared onto SiO2(1 0 1)/Si(1 1 1) substrates. |
