(a–c) Measured hysteresis loops of 30 Å CoO/ 130 Å Fe sample area at 80 K for H || Fe[\(1\overline{1 }0\)] axis after ZFC and FC cooling and after refreezing from 230 K. (d) Schematics of unfreezing and refreezing of AFM domains. XAS and MLD spectra for 25 Å CoO/115 Å Fe and 25 Å CoO/80 Å Fe sample regions measured at 80 K after (e, h) ZFC, (f, i) FC and (g, j) after ‘refreezing’ from 230 K.
