摘要
SmFe thin films were prepared by DC magietron sputtering at room temperature and 300 %. The influence of magnetic annealing temperature on the phase structure and magnetic properties was investigated. Results showed that thermal sputtering followed by a heat treatment process helped to obtain a structure with a relatively large fraction of SmFe2. Residual phases observed were α-Fe, Sm2O3, and unknown phases. During the annealing treatment, the intrinsic compressive stress in SmFe films was relieved and could become tensile at higher annealing temperatures. The degree of in-plane anisotropy weakened, and furthermore, the anisotropy transformed into out-of-plane anisotropy.
