Dynamic magnetic properties in perpendicularly exchange-coupled [Co/Ni]5/Cu (tCu= 0–2 nm)/TbCo structures show strong dependences on the interfacial antiferromagnetic strengthJex, which is controlled by the Cu interlayer thickness. The precession frequencyfand effective damping constant αeffof a [Co/Ni]5multilayer differ distinctly for parallel (P) and antiparallel (AP) magnetization orientation states. For samples with a thintCu,fof the AP state is apparently higher, whereas αeffis lower than that in the P state, owing to the unidirectional exchange bias effect (HEB) from the TbCo layer. The differences infand αeffbetween the two states gradually decrease with increasingtCu. By using a uniform precession model including an additionalHEBterm, the field-dependent frequency curves can be well-fitted, and the fittedHEBvalue is in good agreement with the experimental data. Moreover, the saturation damping constant α0displays a nearly linear correlation withJex. It decreases significantly withJexand eventually approaches a constant value of 0.027 attCu= 2 nm whereJexvanishes. These results provide a better understanding and effective control of magnetization dynamics in exchange-coupled composite structures for spintronic applications.
