TLDR
In this paper, local spin density functional (LSDF) ab initio electronic structure calculations played a key role in the development of this exciting field by not only providing a clearer understanding of the experimental observations but also predicting new systems with desired properties.About:

Ferromagnetic resonance of ultrathin metallic layers
TL;DR: In this paper, the contribution of the technique of ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) has made to the understanding of the magnetic behavior of ultrathin single films is reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetism in ultrathin film structures
TL;DR: In this article, the results of recent experimental and theoretical studies of well characterized epitaxial structures based on Fe, Co and Ni to illustrate how intrinsic fundamental properties such as the magnetic exchange interactions, magnetic moment and magnetic anisotropies change markedly in ultrathin films as compared with their bulk counterparts, and to emphasize the role of atomic scale structure, strain and crystallinity in determining the magnetic properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the microscopic origin of magnetic anisotropies with X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this article, a simple ligand field model was developed to visualize the origin of magnetocrystalline anisotropy in terms of the preferred direction of the orbital moment, corresponding to the direction of maximum size.

Mario Norberto Baibich,J. M. Broto,Albert Fert,F. Nguyen Van Dau,Frédéric Petroff,P. Etienne,G. Creuzet,A. Friederich,Jean Chazelas +8 more
TL;DR: This work ascribes this giant magnetoresistance of (001)Fe/(001)Cr superlattices prepared by molecularbeam epitaxy to spin-dependent transmission of the conduction electrons between Fe layers through Cr layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced magnetoresistance in layered magnetic structures with antiferromagnetic interlayer exchange
TL;DR: The electrical resistivity of Fe-Cr-Fe layers with antiferromagnetic interlayer exchange increases when the magnetizations of the Fe layers are aligned antiparallel, much stronger than the usual anisotropic magnetoresistance.
