Magnetotransport and magnetic properties of molecular-beam epitaxy L10 FePt thin films
نویسندگان
چکیده
The magnetotransport and magnetic properties of chemically ordered ~001! L10 FePt epitaxial thin films with small scale perpendicularly magnetized stripe domains have been investigated. Film growth conditions are used to systematically vary the degree of chemical order, the magnetic anisotropy, and magnetic domain sizes. The longitudinal and transverse ~Hall! resistivities are correlated with both film chemical order and magnetic properties. The low-field magnetoresistance shows evidence of domain effects. In the highest anisotropy and most chemically ordered film studied, this low field magnetoresistance is consistent with an intrinsic domain wall scattering contribution to the resistivity. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. @S0021-8979~00!89308-1#

The effects of Ag underlayer and Pt intermediate layers on the microstructure and magnetic properties of epitaxial FePt thin films
In this work, Ag underlayers, which have a slightly larger lattice parameter than FePt, were found not only to induce epitaxial growth of the FePt films but also to reduce the temperature at which the atomic ordering occurred. Without using the Ag underlayer, the FePt film deposited onto the hydrofluoric acid etched-Si substrate was FCC disordered. When Ag underlayers were used the FePt unit ce...
متن کاملEpitaxial L10 FePt films on SrTiO3 (1 0 0) by sputtering
FePt magnetic thin films (20 nm) were deposited on SrTiO3 (1 0 0) single-crystal substrates at 150, 250, and 350 1C by DC magnetron sputtering. The dependence of the structural and magnetic properties of the FePt films on the substrate temperature was studied. At 150 1C, the FePt film showed a (1 1 1) preferred orientation. At 250 1C, the superlattice FePt (0 0 1) peak appeared indicating that ...
متن کاملEffects of Ag underlayers on the microstructure and magnetic properties of epitaxial FePt thin films
In this work Ag underlayers, with a slightly larger unit cell than FePt, were found not only to induce epitaxial growth of the FePt films but also to reduce the FePt ordering temperature. Without using the Ag underlayer, the FePt film deposited onto the Si substrate was fcc disordered. By the use of the Ag underlayer, it was observed that the FePt unit cells were expanded in the film plane. Thi...
متن کاملEffects of ion-beam irradiation on the L10 phase transformation and their magnetic properties of FePt and PtMn films (Invited)
In this paper, we illustrate how to modify the structure and magnetic properties of L10 FePt and PtMn films using ion-beam irradiation. Highly ordered L10 FePt and PtMn phases were achieved directly by using 2 MeV He-ion irradiation without conventional post-annealing. A high ion-beam current density (~μA/cm ) was used to achieve direct beam heating on samples. This irradiation-induced heating ...
