Abstract
Magnetic heterostructures may exhibit new features at the interface while leaving the bulk properties of the films unaltered, which make them ideal for technological applications. Here, I explore the interfaces of EuO(001)/LaAlO
Published DFT calculations postulated the formation of a spin polarised two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the EuO film at $\sim
Exchange bias and the magnetisation depth profile of the polar interface of the antiferromagnet NiO(111) with EuO are investigated using PNR, and the results are compared with those of an uncoupled EuO grown on a MgO(001) substrate. A small double shifted hysteresis loop with enhanced coercivity, which arise as a result of the competition of the random NiO(111)
A magnetic moment in graphene can be induced in the presence of a ferromagnetic layer as a result of the proximity effect. PNR measurements show that a magnetic moment of $\sim$0.57
