Abstract
We report the first observation of standing spin-wave modes by means of Brillouin light scattering in thin sputtered films of amorphous metallic . Results agree with a classical theory and permit determination of spin-wave stiffness Oe . The value of is twice as large as that obtained from low-temperature magnetization measurements.
