Abstract

We study theoretically the magnetic screening properties of thin, diffusive superconductor/ferromagnet bilayers subject to a perpendicular magnetic field. We find that the effective penetration depth characterizing the magnetic response oscillates with the thickness of the ferromagnetic layer on the scale of the ferromagnetic coherence length.
