Metallic multilayers and their applications : theory, experiments, and applications related to thin metallic multilayers /

Thin metallic multilayer films have become an important part in today's computer technology. The giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect, which plays a central role here, was discovered in the late 1980s. This can be essentially described as the effect of a magnetic field on the electron transport...
