Abstract

We investigated perpendicular exchange bias of Pt/Co/α-Cr_2O_3(0001) thin films which were fabricated by means of DC magnetron sputtering method. The Pt/Co bilayer which was deposited on α-Cr_2O_3(0001) layer has perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and perpendicular exchange bias (PEB). Although PEB is not observed at RT, it appears suddenly at a given temperature, and it had a unique temperature dependence. Unidirectional magnetic anisotropy energy, J_K of about 0.29 erg/cm^2 is obtained. The mechanism of suddenly appearance of J_K is discussed on the basis of Meiklejohn and Bean's exchange anisotropy model.
