25. In the bilayer structure the orientation of AFM vector is governed by competition between the intrinsic magnetic anisotropy, Eq., and exchange coupling with the adjacent FM layer. However, in the typical cases an effective field of exchange coupling is much smaller than the spin-flop field of AFM and thus can be neglected.
