Using circularly polarized soft x rays to probe antiferromagnetically correlated Co/Cu multilayers S. Stadler Department of Physics, Southern Illinois University, Neckers 483A, Carbondale, Illinois 62901 Y. U. Idzerda and J. Dvorak Department of Physics and Astronomy, Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana 79717 J. A. Borchers National Intsitute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899 X-ray resonant magnetic scattering was used to study the antiferromagnetic correlation between weakly coupled Co layers in a [Co(6 nm)|Cu(6 nm)]20 multilayer. Half-order peaks were observed for standard specular theta–2theta scans with the energy of the incident x rays tuned to the Co L3 absorption edge. Three characteristic lengths were extracted from fits to the multicomponent 3/2-order diffuse spectrum: average correlated domain size, average correlated domain wall thickness, and average in-plane structural correlation length. ©2004 American Institute of Physics. doi: 10.1063/1.1669311 PACS: 75.50.Cc, 75.70.Cn, 75.60.Ch, 78.70.Ck Additional Information View ISI's Web of Science data for this article: [ Source Abstract | Related Articles ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Full Text: [ HTML Sectioned HTML PDF (199 kB) GZipped PS ] Order ------------------------------------------------------------------------ References Citation links [e.g., Phys.
