We review the phenomenology of exchange bias and related effects, with emphasis on
layered antiferromagnetic (AFM)–ferromagnetic (FM) structures. A compilation of materials …

The coercivity, HC, and squareness of Co powders have been enhanced at room
temperature by mechanically alloying them with antiferromagnetic powders with Néel …

Room-temperature growth of NiO thin films using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD)
technique was investigated. Epitaxial growth of NiO thin films on (100) MgO substrates was …

In this study, the magnetic behavior of NiFe/NiO bilayers has been investigated. The
relationship between the magnetic properties and interfacial interaction has been briefly …

We have investigated the correlation between magnetic and structural properties in
exchange coupled polycrystalline CoO/Fe thin films. It has been found that an increase in …

A series of high-resolution attenuated total reflection and reflectivity measurements in the far
infrared are used to obtain experimental dispersion curves for bulk and surface magnetic …

Monte Carlo simulations have been used to study the relationship between the exchange
bias properties and the interface roughness in coupled ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic …

The phenomenon of negative exchange bias is typically observed in ferromagnetic and
antiferromagnetic materials following a field cooling protocol. However, the occurrence of …

A process for making a spin valve magnetoresistive (SVMR) sensor includes forming a
nickel-oxide (NiO) layer as the antiferromagnetic layer for pinning the magnetization of the …

We describe the development of a novel linear displacement sensor utilizing Giant
Magnetoresistance (GMR) elements. This device is based on the division of a magnetically …
