Experimental Evidence for Electron Channelling in Fe/Au (100) Multilayers
We present transport and structural data from epitaxial (100) and (111) Au/Fe multilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. From their analysis, we conclude that an electron channelling mechanism, due to strong specular reflection of the minority spin carrier at the Au/Fe interfaces, is responsible for the high conductivity in the (100) multilayers.
