Hickey /Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, United Kingdom/ Received 22 September 1999 By separately identifying magnetic and charge scatter, we find conclusive evidence for conformality in magnetic roughness in \{Co (8 Å) Cu (9 Å)\} multilayers. For layers magnetized in the easy direction, the magnetic roughness equals the structural roughness but increases when magnetized in the hard direction. The in-plane magnetic correlation length, which changes on magnetization, is several orders of magnitude larger than the structural roughness length scales. The magnetic length scale is of the same order as magnetic ripple observed in Lorentz microscopy and is not associated with domains. ©2000 The American Physical Society *URL:* http://link.aps.org/abstract/PRB/v61/pR3792 *DOI:* 10.1103/PhysRevB.61.R3792 *PACS:* 75.70.Cn, 68.35.Ct, 75.25.+z, 75.70.Pa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ^* Present address: Institut für Festkörperforschung, Forschungszentrum Jülich, 52425 Jülich, Germany. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ View PDF (194 kB) *[ *Previous article* | *Next article* | *Issue 6 contents* ]* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ References (Reference links marked with may require a separate subscription.) 1.
