Abstract
AbstractConditions to prepare good single-crystal CoCrPt magnetic thin film with the easy magnetization axis perpendicular to the film plane were investigated using oxide single-crystal substrates, Al2O3(0001), LaAlO3(0001), mica(0001), SrTiO3(111), and MgO(111). The best CoCrPt(0001) single-crystal thin film was obtained on an Al2O3(0001) substrate employing a non-magnetic CoCrRu underlayer. The crystallographic quality of single-crystal thin film was investigated using X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Some intrinsic magnetic properties (Hk, Ku) were determined for the single-crystal CoCrxPty thin films for a compositional range of x=17-20at% and y=0-17at%.
