Variation of magnetic easy direction of bcc structured ferromagnetic films up to thirty spin layers

Third order Heisenberg Hamiltonian was employed to determine the effect of number of spin layers on magnetic easy direction. 3-D graph of energy versus stress induced anisotropy and angle was plotted to find magnetic easy and hard directions. First values of stress induced anisotropy corresponding t...
