Abstract

A bilayer structure consisted of two ferromagnetic films with nonmagnetic interlayer and with noncollinear in-plane orientation of magnetization vectors as well as a magnetic multilayer stack consisted of several identical bilayers with nonmagnetic interlayer and with non-collinear magnetization are considered in view of the effect of nonreciprocity. A significant dependence of magnetooptical characteristics on the angle between the magnetization vectors in the magnetic layers and effects of nonreciprocity are demonstrated.
