Kurzfassung:
The magnetic and magneto-optical properties of Fe-Si/Pd multilayers prepared by rf sputtering were studied. For Fe-Si/Pd multilayers with a fixed Fe-Si layer thickness dm of 15 Å and the Pd layer thickness dp increasing from 10.8 to 18 Å, the saturation magnetization Ms and the Kerr rotation θk decrease sharply and reach a minimum. With dp further increasing, the multilayers increase. Ms is almost constant and θk decreases slightly when dp≳36 Å. For Fe-Si/Pd (54 Å) multilayers the room temperature Ms decreases and θk increases, respectively, with increasing dm. This is caused by the spin-polarization effect of Pd atoms near the interfaces.
