1.5 and 10 nm and a fixed thickness of the Heusler layer t Co 2 Mn Ge= 3 nm by x-ray
scattering, neutron reflectivity, and magnetization measurements. In the thickness range t V⩽
3 nm neutron reflectivity results provide clear evidence for an antiferromagnetic (af)
interlayer long-range order below a Néel temperature TN. The interlayer long range order
does not show an oscillating character and is stabilized by a weak af coupling field H af≈ …
