Abstract
We present a detailed investigation on the effects of C-implantation on low temperature magnetic behavior in Fe93Zr7 amorphous films using spin wave theory, law of approach to saturation, and Alben and Becker's theory. Significant increase in Curie temperature with a decrease in coercivity were observed upon C-implantation. Bloch's law was used to analyze the temperature dependence of magnetization, and several important parameters were extracted such as the stiffness constant of the spin wave, and the exchange constant. The local random anisotropy constant decreases from 0.35 to 0.19 MJ/m3 with increasing carbon concentration from 0 to 11%. The ferromagnetic correlation length for which the anisotropy directions are assumed to be arbitrarily oriented increases significantly with increasing carbon content. By the use of the theory of Alben and Becker, we also extracted the local anisotropy from coercivity, and reasonable agreement was found with random magnetic anisotropy approach.
