ABSTRACTElectrolytic cylindrical amorphous CoP multilayers, grown on copper wires, with controlled continuos variation of the magnetic anisotropy, in both, direction and magnitude, have been produced. The inner zone of the samples has been grown to exhibit radial anisotropy and the overlayer has been obtained with planar longitudinal anisotropy. Our studies have revealed that the magnetization at the surface of the samples is strongly coupled with the bulk anisotropy for thickness of the overlayer of ≈ 1.5 μm. Furthermore, it has been found that an angular deformation applied to the samples, when the copper wire is subjected to a torsion, modifies the direction of the longitudinal anisotropy to the helical direction. Also, a large spontaneous Matteucci effect is induced by means of this angular deformation.

Radial Anisotropy

Co90P10 amorphous microtubes with thickness ranging from 2 to 19 μm were electrodeposited onto Cu wire substrates. Samples exhibit radial magnetic anisotropy as deduced from hysteresis loops and magnetic force microscopy imaging. These microtubes show quite noticeable giant magnetoimpedance effect (GMI) with amplitude depending on layer thickness and frequency. The hysteresis in the GMI curves is small, which can be ascribed to the radial anisotropy. Such small hysteresis is of importance for technological applications.

Recent ultrastructural studies on endometrial tissues from women wearing copper, wire intrauterine devices have disclosed morphological evidence of impaired glycogen degradation and secretion resulting in interference with the viability of blastocysts. Reduced microapocrine secretion observed with the scanning electron microscope supports this (1). In addition, organelle modifications have been observed in the epithelial cells of these women. The changes are seen in biopsies taken in the proliferative phase of the cycle and consist of mitochondrial vacuolation and myelin figure formation. These modifications disappear in the secretory phase and therefore have been regarded as reversible (2).The aim of the present studies was to investigate surface epithelial changes as well as organelle modifications in relation to the site of contact with an IUD that releases greater amounts of copper. Endometrial tissue was obtained from the uterine cavity of four young women wearing TCu-380-A intrauterine contraceptive devices for 4-6 weeks.

There is currently great interest in magnetic multilayer (ML) thin films (see e.g.), because they display some interesting magnetic properties. Co/Pd and Co/Au ML systems exhibit perpendicular magnetic anisotropy below certain Co layer thicknesses, which makes them candidates for applications in the field of magneto-optical recording. It has been found that the magnetic anisotropy of a particular system strongly depends on the preparation method (vapour deposition, sputtering, ion beam sputtering) as well as on the substrate, underlayer and deposition temperature. In order to get a better understanding of the correlation between microstructure and properties a thorough cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM) study of vapour deposited Co/Pd and Co/Au (111) MLs was undertaken (for more detailed results see ref.).The Co/Pd films (with fixed Pd thickness of 2.2 nm) were deposited on mica substrates at substrate temperatures Ts of 20°C and 200°C, after prior deposition of a 100 nm Pd underlayer at 450°C.
