The effects of Cu underlayer on the structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the γ＇-Fe4N films are studied. The single-phase γ＇-Fe4N films with Cu underlayers on the glass substrate are obtained, while the mixture of Fe and γ＇-Fe4N is observed on the Si substrate. In comparison with the films without Cu underlayers, the grains of the films with Cu underlayers exhibit a non-uniform size distribution and give rise to a rougher surface. The magnetic measurements indicate that the γ＇-Fe4N films show a good soft ferromagnetic behavior. The enhanced coercivity in the films with Cu underlayers is observed due to the deterioration of the crystallographic structure as well as the rougher surface.展开更多

The samples calcined at and above 600 ℃ have a single-phase spinel structure and the average grain size of the sample calcined at 600 ℃ is about 20 nm. The initial permeability μi, saturation magnetization M and coercivity H of the samples increase with the increasing calcination temperature. The sample calcined at 600 ℃ exhibits an excellent soft magnetic performance, which has μi=33.97 （10 MHz）, Hc=15.62 Oe and Ms=228.877 emu/cm^3. Low-temperature annealing can enhance the magnetic properties of the samples. The work shows that using the sol-gel method in conjunction with RTA is a promising way to fabricate integrated thin-film devices.展开更多

The effect of sputteringparameters, including Ar gas pressure and input rf power, on the structure and magnetic propertieswas investigated. It was found that when the power is lower than 70W, the structure of the filmsremained single bcc-Fe phase with Cu solubility of up to 50at. percent. TEM observations for thebcc-Fe phase showed that the grain size was in the nanometer range of less than 20nm. The coercivityof Fe- Cu films was largely affected by not only Ar gas pressure but also rf power, and reachedabout 2.5Oe in the pressure of 0.67-6.67Pa and in the power of less than 100W. In addition,saturation magnetization, with Cu content less than 60at. percent, was about proportional to thecontent of bcc-Fe. When Cu content was at 60at. percent, however, saturation magnetization was muchsmaller than its calculation value.展开更多

At annealing temperatures from 703 to 748 K, the single NC bcc(Si) phase is obtained in the crystallized alloys. The grain size and the Si-content in the NC bcc Fe(Si) phase for the alloys annealed at different temperatures are presented. The soft magnetic properties and the saturation magnetostriction for the alloys with the NC bcc Fe(Si) phase are also measured. The results show that, the saturation magnetizotion and the permeability are improved for the alloys with only the NC bcc Fe(Si) phase and become better with decreasing of the NC bcc phase size, and the saturation magnetostriction declines for the alloys with increasing Si-content in the NC bcc Fe(Si) phase.展开更多

The results show that the roughness of the film surface increases with the sputtering time increasing. The as-sputtered films are super saturation solid solution of Cu-Fe. After annealing at 500℃, α-Fe particle can be segregated from the Cu matrix. The orientations α-Fe particles in the annealed film without magnetic field are random. But the clear texture of α-Fe particles in the annealed film with magnetic field is formed, and the 〈001〉 direction of α-Fe particles tends to be parallel to the magnetic field direction.展开更多

文摘The γ＇-Fe4N films on Cu underlayers are deposited on the glass and Si substrates by dc magnetron reactive sputtering. The effects of Cu underlayer on the structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the γ＇-Fe4N films are studied. The single-phase γ＇-Fe4N films with Cu underlayers on the glass substrate are obtained, while the mixture of Fe and γ＇-Fe4N is observed on the Si substrate. In comparison with the films without Cu underlayers, the grains of the films with Cu underlayers exhibit a non-uniform size distribution and give rise to a rougher surface. The magnetic measurements indicate that the γ＇-Fe4N films show a good soft ferromagnetic behavior. The enhanced coercivity in the films with Cu underlayers is observed due to the deterioration of the crystallographic structure as well as the rougher surface.
