Abstract

Transport properties of Ni/W superlattices have been studied at room temperature. Small positive magnetoresistance effect has been observed in samples with thin nickel layer thickness. Lorentz force magnetoresistance is taken into account to explain the resistance variation behavior of Ni/W superlattices in externally applied magnetic field.
