Abstract
AbstractThe microstructure and magnetic properties of L10 ordered Fe55Pt45 and (Fe55Pt45)1–x–(Al2O3)x thin films fabricated by in situ ordering process were studied. For Fe55Pt45 thin films, preheating substrate above 250 °C induces a transformation from a disordered fcc structure to ordered L10 phase and the films become magnetically hard. The addition of Al2O3 made fcc‐fct transformation temperature rise from 250 °C to 400 °C and the average grain size of thin films reduce from 20 nm to 6nm or less. The reason why the fcc‐fct phase transformation starts at lower substrate temperature can be well understood by the discussion of relationship between phase transformation and kinetic energy of sputtered atoms.
