Influence of hydrogen on the interlayer exchange coupling in Fe/V superlattices — •D. Labergerie1, C. Sutter1, H. Zabel1, and B.

We have studied the influence of hydrogen on the magnetic exchange coupling between iron layers through vanadium spacer layers in (Fe3/Vx)30 (x=11 to 16 Ml) superlattices with MOKE measurements.Without hydrogen (Fe3/Vx) show antiferromagnetic (AFM) coupling for x=12 to 14 and ferromagnetic (FM) coupling in all others cases. With hydrogen loading the coupling can be reversibly switched from AFM to FM and vice versa as has been previously found with polarized neutron reflectivity measurementsa. We have extended these measurements and have taken full hysteresis curves with fields up to 2000 Oe. Bilinear and biquadratic exchange coupling can be recognized by the magnetic hysteresis loops and their magnetic coupling constants J1 and J2 can be extractedb.
