Abstrakt: The effect of the YBCO superconducting (SC) state on the magnetic properties of as-grown YBCO/Co/IrMn heterostructures has been systematically studied using magnetometry and ferromagnetic resonance. The obtained data showed that the superconductivity of the YBCO substrate strongly affects the ferromagnetic properties of the deposited Co layer deeper (up to 50 nm) than the coherence length of the YBCO (≃ 4 nm) by an exchange interaction between the Co magnetic moments and the superconducting pairs at the YBCO/Co interface. The interfacial exchange interaction, switched on while the YBCO enters the SC state, pins Co spins and yields an enhancement of the Co magnetic properties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
