First-principle calculations of the exchange interaction characteristics for multilayer magnetic structures

Magnetic multilayer structures which consist of the ferromagnetic layers separated by nonmagnetic layers with giant magnetoresistance (GMR) are widely used as spintronic devices and read heads of hard disks. In this work magnetic and exchange interaction characteristics of Co/Cu/Co, Ni/Cu/Ni and Fe/...
