Abstract

Thin films of a granular ferromagnet (GF) based on phase-separating cobalt-copper solid solution have been obtained and their magnetic properties have been studied. It is established that the use of such GF films as sublayers provides a significant increase in the coercivity of thin cobalt films. Based on the GF cobalt-copper sublayers, multilayer structures with different magnetization reversal fields of component layers have been manufactured.
