Description of Dimensional Change for Energy and Magnetic Properties of Ultrathin Magnetic Films Based on Critical Behavior Characteristics

Article Preview

Abstract:

Theoretical description of multilayer ferromagnetic films from Fe, Co, and Ni transition metals on a nonmagnetic metal substrate is considered by the spin-density functional method. The energy and magnetic characteristics of multilayer films are calculated for surface systems Fe (110)/W(110), Fe (110)/Ag (111), Ni (111)/Cu (111), and Сo (111)/Cu (111) in dependence on film thickness for different temperatures, based on critical behavior characteristics of films.
