abstract = {In ferromagnetic (FM) metal/organic semiconductor (OSC)
heterostructures charge transfer can occur which leads to
induction of magnetism in the non-magnetic OSC. This
phenomenon has been described by the change in the density
of states in the OSC which leads to a finite magnetic moment
at the OSC interface and it is called the ‘spinterface’.
One of the main motivations in this field of organic
spintronics is how to control the magnetic moment in the
spinterface. In this regard, there are several open
questions such as (i) which combination of FM and OSC can
lead to more moment at the spinterface? (ii) Is the
thickness of OSC also important? (iii) How does the
spinterface moment vary with the FM thickness? (iv) Does the
crystalline quality of the FM matter? (v) What is the effect
of spinterface on magnetization reversal, domain structure
and anisotropy? In this context, we have tried to answer the
last four issues in this paper by studying Fe/C60 bilayers
of variable Fe thickness deposited on Si substrates. We find
that both the induced moment and thickness of the
spinterface vary proportionally with the Fe thickness. Such
behavior is explained in terms of the growth quality of the
Fe layer on the native oxide of the Si (100) substrate. The
magnetization reversal, domain structure and anisotropy of
these bilayer samples were studied and compared with their
respective reference samples without the C60 layer. It is
observed that the formation of spinterface leads to a
reduction in uniaxial anisotropy in Fe/C60 on Si (100) in
comparison to their reference samples.},
