High frequency properties of [Co/Pd]n/Py multilayer films under different temperatures

High frequency properties of exchange-coupled multilayers are important to develop future fast switching spintronic devices. Here, we report an experimental investigation of temperature-dependent high frequency properties in [Co/Pd]n/Py multilayer thin films. The results demonstrate that the linewidth varies with the number of cycles at room temperature. However, the damping slightly decreases with increasing repetitions of Co/Pd. By fitting the relationship between the linewidth and the angle (the out-of-plane azimuthal angle of the external magnetic field), we found that a similar two-magnetron scattering effect becomes stronger when the number of Co/Pd cycles increases. For the (Co/Pd)10/NiFe sample, the linewidth became larger at 9 GHz and 16 GHz with the decrease of temperature. Our findings help comprehend the high frequency properties of exchange-coupled multilayer thin films and are useful for fast switching magnetic devices.High frequency properties of exchange-coupled multilayers are important to develop future fast switching spintronic devices.
