| Popis: | In the present work we report the effect of pressure on the temperature dependent electrical resistivity ρ (T) of three Co/Cu magnetic multilayers (MML) having different Cu layer thickness, tcu. Two are antiferromagnetic (AF) and one is ferromagnetic (F). It is found that at room temperature the electrical resistivity, ρ, of F sample decreases largely by applying pressure compared with that of AF samples; 8 % and 4 % decrease at 2. 2 GPa for F and AF samples, respectively. At low temperatures MMLs show a large residual resistivity ρ0 reflecting much existence of magnetic and structural disorders in the sample, which decreases largely with increasing pressure having pressure coefficient -2. 3×10-2 GPa. Furthermore, the value of the coefficient of a T2-term of ρ (T), A, is decreased by applying pressure and its decreasing rate, ∂lnA/∂P, of Co/Cu MML with AF state is much larger than that with F state. It is suggested that the s-d interband scattering of conduction electrons due to local spin disorder in Co/Cu MML with AF state is more sensitive to pressure than that in Co/Cu with F state. |
