Abstract
The soft magnetic properties of nanostructured Fe50Co50 alloy thin films were deposited on Si (1 1 1) wafer at different substrate temperatures using ultra high vacuum DC magnetron sputtering. The structural behavior of Fe50Co50 alloy thin films were characterized by high-resolution x-ray diffraction, which confirms the existence of cubic structure. The magnetic properties of the prepared thin film samples were investigated using vibrating sample magnetometer, which found to have high susceptibility of 107 (emu/cc) Oe and low coercivity of (Hc = 10 Oe) for Fe50Co50 alloy thin film prepared at 450 °C substrate temperature. The prepared Fe50Co50 nanostructured alloy thin films possesses a soft ferromagnetic property with low squareness ratio (Mr/Ms) and low coercivity value and hence, it can be useful for read and write with fast switching mode for spintronics device applications.
