Sputter-prepared (001) BiFeO3 thin films with ferromagnetic L10-FePt(001) electrode on glass substrates

Highly textured BiFeO3(001) films were formed on L10-FePt(001) bottom electrodes on glass substrates by sputtering at reduced temperature of 400°C. Good electric polarization 2Pr = 80 and 95 μC/cm2, comparable to that of the reported epitaxial films, and coercivity Ec = 415 and 435 kV/cm are achieved in the samples with 20-nm- and 30-nm-thick electrodes. The BiFeO3(001) films show different deg...

Growth and Characterization of L10 FePt and CoPt 001 Textured Polycrystalline Thin Films

Thin 001 textured FePt and CoPt polycrystalline films (5 nm) were deposited with an MgO polycrystalline underlayer on an oxidized Si substrate followed by a Rapid Thermal Annealing (RTA) process. Structural analysis indicated the samples to be fully ordered after 10 minutes (min) of RTA at 700 C. The magnetic hysteresis exhibited strong perpendicular anisotropy and a coercivity ( ) between 6 an...
