Abstract
Results of domain structures observation of individual Ni80Fe20 and Co sublayers in sputter deposited (NiFe/Au/Co/Au)10 multilayers, using an element-sensitive method: the photoemission electron microscopy combined with soft X-ray magnetic circular dichroism, are presented. Also, overall domain structures were studied with magnetic force microscopy. The studies allowed us to reveal submicron stripe domains in the investigated samples and the replication of the stripe domains from the Co layers with perpendicular anisotropy to the NiFe layers with easy-plane anisotropy.
