  • Abstract
    The magnetism of sesquilayer bcc iron films on W(110) is investigated. Coercivity data and theoretical calculations indicate that the freezing of the magnetization at low temperatures reflects exchange-dominated domain-wall pinning rather than superparamagnetic spin-glass behaviour
