Abstract

The previous exchange bias effect is measured in heterosystems with perpendicular anisotropy consisting of Co/Pt multilayers on top of the (0 0 1) face of a previous FeF2 single crystal. The resulting previous exchange field HE exhibits a strong dependence on temperature and the axial freezing field, HF. Within the framework of an Ising-type model, the HE vs. T as well as the HE vs. HF data are explained in terms of the microscopic spin structure at the interface.
