Interlayer exchange coupling in transition metal multilayers has been intensively studied for more than three decades and is incorporated into almost all spintronic devices. With the current spacer layers, only collinear magnetic alignment can be reliably achieved; however, controlling the coupling angle has the potential to markedly expand the use of interlayer exchange coupling. Here, we show that the coupling angle between the magnetic moments of two ferromagnetic layers can be precisely controlled by inserting a specially designed magnetic metallic spacer layer between them. The coupling angle is controlled solely by the composition of the spacer layer. Moreover, the biquadratic coupling strength, responsible for noncollinear alignment, is larger than that of current materials. These properties allow for the fabrication and study of not yet realized magnetic structures that have the potential to improve existing spintronic devices.

ABSTRACTThe photothermally modulated ferromagnetic resonance (PM-FMR) has been successfully applied to investigate the position dependence of FMR properties of wedged Fe-samples. The temperature dependence of the surface contribution to the anisotropy could be separated from the demagnetizing field with high accuracy. The oscillating first order interlayer exchange coupling and the anisotropy fields of the Fe-films of a Fe/Cr-wedge/Fe-sample (3.0/0.7–2.8/2.0 nm) were deduced from PM-FMR spectra.
