Abstract
Correlations in the scattering from the ordering of impurities due to interdiffusion between metals at interfaces are taken into account. The constructive interference between scattering amplitudes produces enhanced spin-dependent scattering from the interface between magnetic and nonmagnetic metals.Keywords
