- Abstract
- Ta/Ru/Ta/Co/Fe/MgO film is studied to investigate the separate roles of Co and Fe in perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Perpendicular magnetization is successfully obtained in this structure after a field annealing process (275 degrees C, 3 T, 30 min). Surface magnetic anisotropy at the Fe/MgO interface induces perpendicular magnetization for the Co/Fe bilayer with the critical contribution of the inserted Co. Magnetization properties resulting from the use of various Co and Fe layer thicknesses in the range of 0.36-0.6 nm (Co) and 0.52-0.91 nm (Fe) are analyzed, indicating the formation of a magnetic dead layer between the Co layer and the Ta seed layer. The maximum effective anisotropy energy (K-eff) is estimated as 1.63x10(5) J/m(3) for Co (0.36 nm)/Fe (0.65 nm).
