Microstructure and magnetism of Ga+-irradiated IrMn-based spin-valve multilayered film

An IrMn top-nailed spin-valve multilayer film was synthesized using direct-current magnetron sputtering on a naturally oxidized silicon substrate. The multilayered film microstructure and magnetism were analyzed using x-ray diffraction, transmission, and atomic force microscopies as well as vibratin...
