Figure 4: Simulations of Tc in a trilayer.

From: Long-range magnetic interactions and proximity effects in an amorphous exchange-spring magnet

Figure 4

(a) The magnetization versus temperature in the middle of a single B-layer and in the middle of a B-layer sandwiched between an A and C layer. The magnetization is calculated by including up to eighth nearest-neighbour interactions and the temperature is normalized by the intrinsic ordering temperature of the B layer found in the simulations . (b) The susceptibility of the middle atomic layer of a single B-layer and in the middle of a B-layer, sandwiched between an A and C layer. The shift in the ordering temperature of the sandwiched layer due to the proximity to the A and C layers can be seen clearly. Only a small subset of symbols is shown.
