    Abstract

Evidence for 90° exchange coupling between Fe layers in epitaxial
Fe/Cr/Fe sandwiches have recently been reported by various groups.
Following Slonczewski's approach, we interpret this 90° coupling as due
to spatial fluctuations in the interlayer coupling through the Cr spacer
layer caused by the presence of terraces at the Fe/Cr interfaces. We
investigate numerically a model based on this assumption. The
magnetization curves, coupling energy, effect of the average chromium
thickness have been calculated. We demonstrate in particular that this
90° coupling can be represented by a biquadratic variation only for
small deviations around 90°. We also show that all intermediate angles
between the magnetic moments of the Fe layers from 0° to 180° can be
obtained depending on the average thickness of Cr.
