Supplemental to Platinum or palladium: reasonable choice in spintronic devices

XRD spectrum of sample 2. Fig. S2.

Cross-sectional EDX spectra of the samples 1 (a) and 2 (b). Fig. S3. In-plane and out-of-plane hysteresis loops, recorded at room temperature, for Pt-based series samples: [Pt(3.2 nm)/Co(1.0 nm)/Ir(1.4 nm)/Co(tCo)/Pt(3.2 nm)] with the thick layer (a) tCo = 0.6 nm, (b) tCo = 0.7 nm, (c) tCo = 0.8 nm, (d) tCo = 1.0 nm and for Pd-based series samples Pd(3.2 nm)/Co(1.0 nm)/Ir(tIr)/Co(0.8 nm)/Pd(3.2 nm) with (e) tIr = 1.4 nm, (f) tIr = 1.2 nm, (g) tIr = 1.0 nm.
