Abstract

Abstract The nanowires of Co66-Fe34 alloy were obtained in the process of the electrodeposition in the pores of alumina membrane. With the use of the X-ray diffraction analysis the structure of cobalt-iron alloy wires was determined. The wires have the regular Body Centred Cubic structure (BCC). The influence of membrane parameters, an external magnetic field, and the annealing temperature on the magnetic properties of alloy wires was investigated. The obtained nanowires show a high shape anisotropy in the direction perpendicular to the membrane surface of anodic alumina. It was found that the highest influence on the magnetic properties of the wires has their geometry (height, diameter, and the distance between them). The use of an external magnetic field directed perpendicular to the sample surface during the electrodeposition process and additional thermal treatment (annealing) causes a slight increase of the coercive field, remanence, and volume energy density.
