Abstract
The influence of the order-disorder structural transition on the magneto-optical, magnetic, and optical properties of Co-rich β-phase Co-Al alloy films has been investigated. The disordered state in these alloy films was obtained by means of vapor quenching deposition onto glass substrates cooled by liquid nitrogen. The experimental studies of the magneto-optical and optical properties of the ordered and disordered Co-Al alloy films have been carried out in 0.5–5.0 eV energy range at room temperature. The influence of the order-disorder structural transition on the magneto-optical, magnetic, and optical properties was discussed by using the results of the first-principles calculations of the electronic structure of the CoAl compound and the structural defect approach.
