abstract = {Pt/Co/Pt heterostructures with perpendicular magnetic
anisotropy (PMA) are traditionally used for magnetic
recording to achieve high magnetic data storage density. PMA
can be tuned by e.g. thin film thickness, strain, ion
bombardment or temperature. Recently, it has been shown that
the absorption of hydrogen in the heavy metal modifies the
interfacial spin-orbit coupling and hence reduces the PMA
[1, 2, 3]. As a result, magnetic hydrogen sensing can be
performed, which was studied in an all-solid-state device
and achieves in a Co/GdOx thin film system reversible and
non-destructive toggling of magnetic anisotropy at room
temperature. [4]Polarized neutron reflectivity is an
effective tool for studying the hydrogen uptake and its
impact on the magnetic properties in PMA systems. [2, 5]
Recently, resonance enhanced polarized neutron reflectometry
(RNR) has proven to be a quantitative method for the
determination of the hydrogen concentration with high time
resolution. [Guas22]In this contribution we will study the
impact of hydrogen uptake on the spin reorientation
transition in polycrystalline Pt/Co/Pt trilayers sandwiched
by 25 nm Nb layers on MgO(001) substrates fabricated by
molecular beam epitaxy and relate it to the hydrogen
concentration. The feasibility of the Pt/Co/Pt trilayers
will be discussed. [1] S. M. Valvidares, et al., Phys. Rev.
