We observe the change of coercivity and exchange bias, depending on inserting material and thickness in a [Pd(0.6 nm)/$Co(0.2)]_5$/ FeMn(10) multilayer structure with perpendicular anisotropy. When 0.78 and 1.28 nm thick NiFe substitutes for Co in a $[Pd(0.6 nm)Co(0.2)]_4$/Pd(0.6)/NiFe(t)/FeMn(10) structure, we obtain the exchange bias of 360 Oe. In addition, when $Co_8Fe_2$ and $Co_9Fe_1$ are inserted for Co/FeMn interface, we obtain the exchange bias of 380 nm for a 0.68 nm thick $Co_8Fe_2$ and 580 Oe for a 0.52 nm thick $Co_9Fe_1$.

Magnetic properties and thermal stability by exchange biased perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in (Pd/Co)$_{N}$FeMn multilayer deposited by do magnetron sputtering system are investigated. We measured the perpendicular magnetization curves of (Pd(0.8nm)/Co(0.8nm)$_{5}$FeMn multilayer as function of FeMn thickness and annealing temperature. As FeMn thickness increases from 0 to 21nm, the perpendicular exchange bias(Hex) obtained 127 Oe at FeMn thickness 15nm. As the annealing temperature increases to 24$0^{\circ}C$, the E$_{ex}$ increased from 115 Oe to 190 Oe and disappeared exchange biased perpendicular magnetic anisotropy effect at 33$0^{\circ}C$.

We analyzed the angular dependence of ferromagnetic resonance linewidth in exchange coupled CoFe/MnIr bilayers. The maximum and minimum linewidth was observed in the easy and hard direction of unidirectional anisotropy by exchange coupling, respectively, and it was well agreed with the angular dependence of exchange bias field. The maximum linewidth was due to the twist of CoFe magnetization near CoFe/MnIr interface from direction of pinned MnIr spin to direction of applied magnetic field. While, minimum linewidth more higher than that of CoFe was related to rotatable anisotropy field, and explained by easy axis distribution of MnIr grains.

In this report, we calculated the angular dependence of exchange bias ($H_{ex}$) by using single domain model in exchange coupled ferromagnetic (F)/antiferromagnetic (AF) bilayers, which results with AF thickness ($t_{AF}$) were used for the analysis of measured ones in NiFe/MnIr bilayers. Angular dependence of $H_{ex}$ calculated at $t_{AF}$ > $t_c$ showed typical unidirectional behaviors, however, calculated one at $0.5t_c$ < $t_{AF}$ < $t_c$ showed peculiar angular behaviors by fixed AF spins at specified angle near ${\theta}_H=90^{\circ}$. Angular dependence of $H_{ex}$ measured in NiFe/MnIr (20 nm) bilayers showed typical unidirectional behaviors. However, measured one in NiFe/MnIr (4 nm) bilayers showed mixed behaviors including both of unidirectional and peculiar angular behaviors, which was explained by the grain size distribution of polycrystalline MnIr.

Top synthetic spin valves with structure Ta/NiFe/CoFe/Cu/CoFe(P1)/Ru/CoFe(P2)/FeMn/Ta on Si(100) substrate with natural oxide were prepared by dc magnetron sputtering system, and investigated on the magnetoresistance properties and effective exchange bias field. As the thickness of FeMn increased above 150 $\AA$, MR ratio was decreased due to the current shunting effect. As the thickness of free layer decreased below 40$\AA$, MR ratio was reduced rapidly. In case of 40 $\AA$ thick of free layer, spin valve film with a structure Si(100)/Ta(50 $\AA$)/NiFe(27 $\AA$)/CoFe(13 $\AA$)/Cu(26 $\AA$)/CoFe(30 $\AA$)/Ru(7 $\AA$)/CoFe(15 $\AA$)/FeMn(100 $\AA$)/Ta(50 $\AA$) exhibited maximum MR ratio of 7.5 % and an effective exchange bias field of 600 Oe, respectively. Thickness difference dependence in this synthetic spin valve structure on effective exchange field was investigated and interpreted by the analytical method. It should be noted that thickness increase of CoFe(P 1) and decrease of CoFe(P2) in synthetic antiferromagnet leaded to the decrease in effective exchange bias field by experimentally and analytically.

스핀 밸브에서는 NiFe, CoFe, Cu등 주요 금속들이 면심입방체(111)로 배향이 용이하지만, 자기 터널 접합 소자에서는 $Al_2$O$_3$ 장벽층이 비정질로서 상부 강자성 전극이 충분히 (111) 배향을 할 수 없기 때문에 top bias 방식의 사용이 거의 불가능하며, bottom bias의 경우에도 교환 바이어스의 크기는 상대적으로 작다[1]. 이를 극복하기 위해 인공 초격자를 이용한 인공 반강자성층(synthetic antiferromagnet - SAF)을 이용하여 높은 교환 바이어스 효과를 구현하고자 하였다.
