The optimum condition to prepare high-ordering L10 FePtZnO films is 20 vol% ZnO addition and 450 ℃ annealing. The effect of the ZnO additive on the ordering process of the L10 FePtZnO films is discussed. In the annealing process, Zn atoms move to the film surface and evaporate. The motion of the Zn atoms accelerates the intergrain exchange and decreases the ordering temperature.展开更多

Scanning probe microscope (SPM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were applied to study the magnetic properties and microstructure. AFM images show that small and uniform grains and some clusters appear with the increase of Ni thickness, also MFM images show that the size of domain first decreases and then increases. The coercivity reaches the maximum 48 kA·m-1 at t=30 nm. The XRD profiles show stronger fcc (111) orientation peak of Ni and weak hcp structure peaks of Ni3Ti. This results reveal that the crystal lines have the prefer orientation and achieve the ordered.展开更多

The phase composition of the film was characterized by X-ray diffractometry(XRD), and the microstructure was observed by scanning electronic microscopy(SEM). Through the film annealed in magnetic field perpendicular to the surface of the film, FCC FePt film with (001) texture was obtained. And the density of the particle in the film annealed without magnetic field is very small compared with that in the film annealed with magnetic field. And the effect of magnetic field annealing on the microstructure of Fe/Pt film and the segregation of FCC FePt phase were also discussed.展开更多
