| Temperature measurements of magnetisation reversal, resistance and magnetoresistance of Co/Cu/Co/FeMn spin valve structures deposited in different conditions were performed. The influence of exchange anisotropy energy, interlayer coupling energy, and electron transport properties were taken into consideration in explaining differences in giant magnetoresistance effect of investigated samples. |
