Abstract
We have measured the dependence of the giant magnetoresistance of a magnetic multilayer (oriented in the current perpendicular to the plane of the layers mode) on the number of layers in the multilayer, with the thickness of the magnetic layers being held fixed. The results are discussed in terms of spin diffusion scattering and mean free path effects.
