The results showed that Co ion implantation decreased the granule size of the annealed multilayer film, and increased Hc value and GMR ratio of the multilayer film. After annealing at 360℃, the multilayer film [NiFeCo(10 nm)/Ag(10 nm)]×20 with/without Co ion implantation both exhibited the highest GMR ratio of 12.4%/11% under 79.6 kA/m of applied saturation magnetic field.展开更多

After annealing at 600℃ for 30 min, thin films become magnetically hard with coercivities in the range of 160-875 kA/m because of high anisotropy associated with the L10 ordered phase. C doping plays an important role in improving (001) texture and reducing the intergrain interactions. The oriented growth of CoPt films was influenced strongly by the number of repetitions (n) of CoPt/C. By controlling the C content and the number of repetitions (n) of CoPt/C, nearly perfect (001) orientation can be obtained in the [CoPt3nm/C3nm]5/Ag50 nm.展开更多

Vibrating sample magnetometer and X-ray diffraction analyser were applied to study the magnetic properties and microstructures of the films. The results show that without Ag underlayer [SiO2/FePt]5 films deposited onto the glass are FCC disordered; with the addition of Ag underlayer [SiO2/FePt]5/Ag films are changed into L10 and (111) mixed texture. The variation of the SiO2 nonmagnetic layer thickness in [SiO2/FePt]5/Ag films indicates that SiO2-doping plays an important role in improving the order parameter and the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, and reducing the grain size and intergrain interactions. By controlling SiO2 thickness the highly perpendicular magnetic anisotropy can be obtained in the [SiO2 (0.6 nm)/FePt (3 nm)]5/Ag (50 nm) films and highly (001)-oriented films can be obtained in the [SiO2 (2 nm)/FePt (3 nm)]5/Ag (50 nm) films.展开更多

By comparing the microstructure and magnetic properties of these two kinds of thin films, effects of Ag addition on the structure and properties of FePt thin films were investigated. Proper Ag addition was found helpful for FePt phase transition at lower annealing temperature. With Ag addition, the magnetic domain pattern of FePt thin film changed from maze-like pattern to more discrete island-like domain pattern in [FePt/Ag]n multilayer thin films. In addition, introducing nonmagnetic Ag hindered FePt grains from growing larger. The in-depth defects in FePt films and [FePt/Ag]n multilayer films verify that Ag addition is attributed to a large number of pinning site defects in [FePt/Ag]n film and therefore has effects on its magnetic properties and microstructure.展开更多

During the deposited process, two kinds of deposited sequences, that is Ag layer (FDAG) first deposited or CoPt layer (FDCP) first deposited, have been chosen. The results show that the microstructures and coercivities were strongly influenced by the deposited sequence and the thickness of films. The coercivities of [Ag/CoPt]n with FDAG are obviously higher than those of [CoPt/Ag]n with FDCP. Especially, when the thickness of films is 8 nm, the difference of coercivities between the FDAG film and the FDCP film is the largest. It is possibly because Ag plays a role of underlayer in FDAG multilayers, which can induce both the transformation from fcc to fct and the oriented growth along c-axis. In addition, δ M curves reveal that the [CoPt/Ag]8 multilayer film has a lower intergrain interaction than the CoPt/Ag bilayer film.展开更多

After being annealed at 550℃ for 30 min, the coercivities of [FePt/Ag]10 multilayer films were observably improved. Magnetic properties of [FePt/Ag]10multilayer films are influenced by the Ag content. The highest coercivity is obtained for those multilayer films that the Ag content is about 25%. The analysis for the re- manence curves shows that the lower FePt layer thickness is favorable for decreasing the intergranular interaction. Re- sult of XRD shows that a thick Ag layer can enhance the intensity of FePt(001) peak. A magnetic activation volume of the order of 10?24 m3 is obtained by the measurement of magnetic viscosity, showing that it is promising to be ultra- high density recording media.展开更多
