Abstract
The dependence of the anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMS) of the single-crystal Fe(001) film grown with the aid of the pulsed laser evaporation on the direction and magnitude of the external magnetic field is analyzed. Three ranges of magnetic fields with different types of variation in AMS with the direction of magnetic field are revealed. The discontinuities of resistance and the hysteresis are demonstrated in a certain range of magnetic fields. The anisotropy field is estimated using the experimental results.
