Figure 13

(a) HAADF-STEM images of a multilayer structure of Cr/ultrathin Ir-doped Fe/MgO. Inter-diffused Ir atoms can be identified by atomic-scale Z-contrast HAADF-STEM imaging as indicated by the yellow arrows. (b) Comparison of the polar MOKE hysteresis curves for pure Fe (1 nm)/MgO and Fe (1 nm)/Ir (0.1 nm)/MgO structures. (c) Dependence of the intrinsic interface magnetic anisotropy energy, Ki,0, on the thickness of the Ir layer. Reproduced from [35]. CC BY 4.0.
