abstract = "X-ray diffraction and its theoretical simulation were used to characterize morphological evolution that takes place in permalloy-silver multilayers as the outcome of thermal annealing treatments. Resistivity and magnetoresistivity measurements were performed in order to obtain additional insight into the results.",

note = "Funding Information: The results that were obtained may be summarized as follows. (1) NiFe grains within the permalloy layers become separated by Ag bridges according to the model presented in Refs. \[1,3,6\]. (2) The effect of thick NiFe layer in the multilayer structure resulted in the formation of NiFe agglomerates after high-temperature annealing, providing positive contribution to the total MR effect. (3) Significant structural changes occur after the first temperature anneal which is reflected in room temperature resistivities and MR measurements. (4) A model was applied to simulate XRD data to monitor the structural changes in this system during annealing. Acknowledgements.
