Abstract

Neodymium–iron–boron (NdFeB) is a material with important magnetic properties, mostly used in permanent magnet fabrication. Thin layers of NdFeB are needed for miniaturization in electrical engineering, electronics and for high-tech devices. In this paper we applied pulsed lased deposition (PLD) in vacuum for obtaining thin films of NdFeB from stoichiometric targets. The influence of different buffer layers and of the laser parameters (wavelength and fluence) on the NdFeB structures, composition and magnetic properties have been investigated. The obtained structures were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and optical microscopy. Vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) has been performed for specific magnetic characterization.
