Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Fe/Mn multilayers were grown by means of a molecular beam epitaxy system onto quartz substrates changing the thickness of the elemental layers. A spontaneous unidirectional anisotropy develops for thickness of Fe or Mn layer of about 35 Å. Since the samples were no subjected to field cooling treatments during or after the growth, this kind of anisotropy can be explained considering besides the exchange coupling at the Fe/Mn interface, the structural disorder due to dislocations and defects. In effect, the appearance and strength of the exchange-bias field are depending on the surface roughness of the samples and are significantly enhanced by the formation of a structure constituted by islands showing a snake-like morphology. The fitting of the angular dependence of the exchange-bias field indicates that the associated anisotropy is due to the superposition of two contributions, the principal one with unidirectional symmetry and the other showing uniaxial characteristics.
