Single-crystalline Fe/NiO bilayers were epitaxially grown on Ag(001) and on MgO(001), and investigated by low-energy electron-diffraction, magneto-optic Kerr effect, and x-ray magnetic linear dichroism (XMLD). We find that while the Fe film has an in-plane magnetization in both Fe/NiO/Ag(001) and Fe/NiO/MgO(001) systems, the NiO spin orientation changes from in-plane direction in Fe/NiO/Ag(001) to out-of-plane direction in Fe/NiO/MgO(001). These two different NiO spin orientations generate remarkable different effects that the NiO induced magnetic anisotropy in the Fe film is much greater in Fe/NiO/Ag(001) than in Fe/NiO/MgO(001). XMLD measurement shows that the much greater magnetic anisotropy in Fe/NiO/Ag(001) is due to a 90 coupling between the in-plane NiO spins and the in-plane Fe spins.
