Abstract
The temperature dependence of the exchange bias field and coercive field was studied in a polycrystalline NiFe layer coupled with a diluted NiO layer. The temperature behavior of both fields is modified by cooling the bilayer below the Curie, Neel, and/or blocking temperatures. Below these temperatures, the presence of double hysteresis loops demonstrates the key role of the NiFe multidomain state during the cooling procedure.
