Phys. Rev. B 64, 092402 (2001) [4 pages]Ab initio magnetocrystalline anisotropy calculations for Fe/W(110) and Fe/Mo(110)Received 23 April 2001; published 30 July 2001 First-principles full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave calculations were performed to evaluate the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy for Fe monolayers and bilayers on Mo(110) and W(110) substrates. In-plane [11¯0] easy axes were found for these systems due to the large in-plane interface anisotropy. Our theoretical results compare well with previous experimental observations. © 2001 The American Physical Society URL:
