Abstract

The noncollinear magnetic structure of Fe overlayers on the stepped Cr substrate is calculated within the framework of a model Hamiltonian approach. Different noncollinear solutions are found by choosing the initial state for the self-consistency procedure. It is shown that for the stepped Fe/Cr interface the ground state is noncollinear and the distribution of magnetic moment directions is not uniform in both the Fe and Cr layers. The dependence of the angle between the average moment of the Fe overlayer and the average moment of different Cr layers on the thickness of Fe coverage is obtained.
