Influence of Au segregation on the magnetic anisotropy of Fe/Cu3Au(0 0 1)

Description

We present a first-principles study of the magnetic anisotropy of ultrathin Fe films on Cu3Au (0 0 1), to investigate the origin of the magnetic reorientation transition observed experimentally. Our results indicate a crucial role of the segregation of Au to the topmost surface at very low Fe thicknesses
