Rapid thermal processing of magnetic materials

چکیده
The rapid thermal processing (RTP) technique features dynamic control of temperature, which permits high heating and cooling rates that cannot be reached with conventional furnace treatments. In recent years, RTP has been increasingly applied to the processing of magnetic materials. The controllable heating profiles provide an approach for the deliberate construction of materials structure via expediting phase transitions and tailoring materials morphology. In this review, the history, principles and facilities of several types of RTP techniques are introduced, including laser and electron beam heating, lamp heating, Joule heating and pulse thermal processing techniques. RTP of various advanced magnetic materials are reviewed, including soft magnetic materials, spintronic materials, magnetic recording materials and nanocomposite hard magnetic materials. Advantages of RTP are highlighted and compared with conventional thermal treatments.

Improved Grain Isolation of Co80Pt20 Films via Grain Boundary Diffusion of Mn
Post-deposition rapid thermal annealing (RTA) was performed on the Cr-less Co20at%Pt alloy with a Mn diffusion layer on top. A value of about 8 10 erg/cm3 was obtained for the as-deposited film and it decreased only up to about 10% after annealing. The high intergranular exchange coupling of the as-deposited CoPt film was suppressed by RTA and the coercivity increased dramatically from about 22...
