Abstract. The study of the state of interlayer boundaries (interfaces) in various multilayer systems is an actual and difficult task, for the solution of which local methods are used. The effectiveness of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in the study of Co/Cu superlattices has been shown many times. However, in the published works nuclear magnetic resonance was used to determine the type of crystal lattice in cobalt layers and the features of the structure of Co/Cu interfaces. In the present work, a method for determining the type of texture formed in Co/Cu superlattices is proposed. The method is based on the interpretation of NMR and X-ray diffraction data using three-dimensional modeling of the structure of interlayer interfaces.

Key words: superlattices Co/Cu, texture, buffer layer, magnetoresistance.

Financing: The work was carried out within the framework of the state assignment on the topic “Function” No. 122021000035-6.
