Abstract

Unusual magnetic behaviours occur in thin Fe films grown on Ir(100) by Molecular Beam Epitaxy. Four different magnetic sites are actually observed in these layers by Conversion Electron Mössbauer Spectrometry. The magnetic relaxation phenomena found in the strained FCC structure together with spin wave softening observed in the strained BCC structure point to small magnetic correlations along the growth direction.
