The magnetic phase diagrams of Fe/Mn/Fe trilayers with the noncollinear interlayer coupling in the form of the proximity magnetism model were theoretically studied. The C+C phase diagram in the remanent magnetization state predicts very rich spin configurations. The HC+ and HC phase diagrams show that the spin configurations of Fe/Mn/Fe trilayers depend strongly on the external magnetic field, the anisotropy of Fe layers, and the coupling coefficients C+ and C. Our experimental results of noncollinear spin configurations of Fe/Mn/Fe trilayers strongly support the magnetic phase diagrams based on the proximity magnetism model. ©2000 American Institute of Physics.
