The structural and magnetic properties of NiCo/(Ni,Co)O bilayers were investigated. X-ray diffractometry results have shown that the top NiCo layer consisted of a fcc NiCo phase. The bilayer bottom was either a pure (Ni,Co)O or a composite [NiCo+(Ni,Co)O] phase, depending on the percent of O2/Ar ratio used during deposition. A double-shifted hysteresis loop exhibiting components that were from positive or negative coupling was observed in the NiCo/(Ni,Co)O (8%O2/Ar) bilayers. The microstructural changes, which result from a combination of deposition oxygen content and the ion-beam bombardment, will result in the unusual exchange bias behavior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
