Abstract

Crystallographic and magnetic properties of barium ferrite (BaM) thin films deposited onto Pt, Pd, and an alloy of Pd–Pt underlayers by sputtering at different substrate temperatures (Ts) from 400to600°C have been studied. It is found that the coercivity values in the perpendicular direction (Hcperp) of the BaM∕Pd–Pt films are higher than those of the BaM films deposited on Pd and Pt underlayers. C-axis orientation of BaM∕Pd–Pt film can be achieved at very low Ts of 450°C with a Hcperp of 2.1kOe for 30-nm BaM.
