Conclusions The experimental method described permits the coercive force/thickness relationship to be reliably determined, and avoids the problems encountered by previous techniques. The experimental values of the critical thicknesses, t 3 and t 4, at which coercive force anomalies occur, allow the determination of the exchange constant for the magnetic material. Coercive force monitoring during deposition enables films to be prepared with the desired magnetic parameters for computer storage systems. The method is also a useful tool for determining the critical thickness of an intermediate, non-magnetic layer separating two ferromagnetic thin films.
