Abstract

The exchange bias shift of the hysteresis loop, H_E, in antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic layer systems can be easily controlled (within certain limits) by cooling in zero field from different magnetization states above the antiferromagnetic Néel temperature, T_N. This indicates that for moderate cooling fields, H_E is determined by the magnetization state of the ferromagnet at T_N, and not by the strength of the cooling field.
