Nanocrystalline CoFeHfO thin films have been fabricated by RF sputtering method. Co52Fe23Hf10O15 thin film is observed, exhibit good magnetic properties with magnetic coercivity (Hc) of 0.18 Oe; anisotropy fild (Hk) of 49 Oe; saturation magnetization (4лMs) of 21 kG, and electrical resistivity (ρ) of 300 01cm. The frequency response of permeability of the film is excellent. The effect of microstructure on the electrical and magnetic properties of thin film was studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that excellent soft magnetic properties were associated with granular nannoscale grains of α-CoFe and α-Co(Fe) phases.

Nonepitaxially grown FePt (x)/FePt:C thin films were synthesized, where FePt (x) (x=2, 5, 8, 11, 14 nm) layers were served as underlayers and FePt:C layer was nanocomposite with thickness of 5 nm. The effect of FePt underlayer on the ordering, orientation and magnetic properties of FePt:C thin films has been investigated by adjusting FePt underlayer thicknesses from 2 nm to 14 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD), together with transmission electron microscopy (TEM) confirmed that the desired L10 phase was formed and films were (001) textured with FePt underlayer thickness decreased less 5 nm. For 5 nm FePt:C nanocomposite thin film with 2 nm FePt underlayer, the coercivity was 8.2 KOe and the correlation length of FePt:C nanocomposite film was 67 nm. These results reveal that the better orientation and magnetic properties for FePt:C nanocomposite films can be tuned by decreasing FePt underlayer thickness.

AbstractConditions to prepare good single-crystal CoCrPt magnetic thin film with the easy magnetization axis perpendicular to the film plane were investigated using oxide single-crystal substrates, Al2O3(0001), LaAlO3(0001), mica(0001), SrTiO3(111), and MgO(111). The best CoCrPt(0001) single-crystal thin film was obtained on an Al2O3(0001) substrate employing a non-magnetic CoCrRu underlayer. The crystallographic quality of single-crystal thin film was investigated using X-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Some intrinsic magnetic properties (Hk, Ku) were determined for the single-crystal CoCrxPty thin films for a compositional range of x=17-20at% and y=0-17at%.

CdSe quantum dots (QDs) dispersed in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix with their sizes within the quantum dot regime have been synthesized via a simple heat induced thermolysis technique. The effect of the concentrations of the cadmium source on the optical properties of CdSe/PVA thin films was investigated through UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. The structural analysis and particle size determination as well as morphological studies of the CdSe/PVA nanocomposite thin films were done with the help of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD analysis reveals that CdSe/PVA nanocomposite thin film has a hexagonal (wurtzite) structure. A prototype thin film solar cell of CdSe/CdTe has been synthesized and its photovoltaic parameters were measured.

AbstractPalladium nanowires have been electrodeposited into mesoporous silica thin film templates. Palladium continually grows and fills silica mesopores starting from a bottom conductive substrate, providing a ready and efficient route to fabricate a macroscopic palladium nanowire thin films for potentially use in fuel cells, electrodes, sensors, and other applications. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) indicate it is possible to create different nanowire morphology such as bundles and swirling mesostructure based on the template pore structure.

The crystallization and optimization of magnetic properties effects in FeXSiB (X=Cu, V, Co, Zr, Nb) amorphous alloys were studied by applying X-ray diffraction methods, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), resistometric and magnetic measurements. The temperatures of the first and the second stage of crystallization, the 1h optimization annealing temperature and the Curie temperature were determined for different amorphous alloys. Activation energies of crystallization process were obtained by applying the Kissinger method. The influence of alloy additions on optimization effect and crystallization processes was carefully examined.

New functional nanocomposite FePt:C thin films with FePt underlayers were synthesized by noneptaxial growth. The effect of the FePt layer on the ordering, orientation and magnetic properties of the composite layer has been investigated by adjusting FePt underlayer thickness from 2 nm to 14 nm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), together with x-ray diffraction (XRD), has been used to check the growth of the double-layered films and to study the microstructure, including the grain size, shape, orientation and distribution. XRD scans reveal that the orientation of the films was dependent on FePt underlayer thickness. In this paper, the TEM studies of both single-layered nonepitaxially grown FePt and FePt:C composite L10 phase and double-layered deposition FePt:C/FePt are presented.

Bimetallic nanomaterials in the form of thin film constituted by magnetic and noble elements show promising properties in different application fields such as catalysts and magnetic driven applications. In order to tailor the chemical and physical properties of these alloys to meet the applications requirements, it is of great importance scientific interest to study the interplay between properties and morphology, surface properties, microstructure, spatial confinement and magnetic features. In this manuscript, FePd thin films are prepared by electrodeposition which is a versatile and widely used technique. Compositional, morphological, surface and magnetic properties are described as a function of deposition time (i.e., film thickness). Chemical etching in hydrochloric acid was used to enhance the surface roughness and help decoupling crystalline grains with direct consequences on to the magnetic properties. X-ray diffraction, SEM/AFM images, contact angle and magnetic measurements have been carried out with the aim of providing a comprehensive characterisation of the fundamental properties of these bimetallic thin films.

The paper presents a laser irradiation method for rapidly fabricating Fe-based nanocrystalline alloys using Yb-doped fiber laser with a wavelength of 1070nm by overlapping irradiation of the heated areas. The samples are annular cores rolled with 20μm-thick and 3.2mm-wide belts of amorphous alloy Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9, which have internal diameter of 14 mm and external diameter of 20 mm. Every side of the samples is irradiated for 15 min by fiber laser. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) are used for microstructure analysis and observation. The samples irradiated by a defocus beam with a diameter of 7.1mm through a lens have better soft magnetic properties than directly by an original collimating beam with a diameter of 6.7mm. The dimension of homogeneous ultrafine grains is about 10nm with a bcc α-Fe (Si), which is the foundation of the excellent soft magnetic property. Uniform laser irradiation and the appropriate laser power are necessary for optimum microstructure and soft magnetic properties.

Epitaxial thin film of SrRuO3 is very useful in device applications, due to its important electrical and magnetic properties. For example, (Pb,Zr)TiO3 ferroelectric capacitors with SrRuO3 thin film electrodes exhibit superior fatigue and leakage characteristics. Epitaxial SrRuO3 thin films grown on different substrates, such as on (001) SrTiO3 and (001) LaA1O3, have different magnetic properties, owing to the different microstructures in the film. Microstructures in epitaxial SrRuO3 thin films grown on (001) SrTiO3 have been studied in our previously work. In this paper, microstructure of epitaxial SrRu03 thin films grown on (001) LaA103 is reported.SrRuO3 thin films on (001) LaA1O3 were deposited by 90° off-axis sputtering. For cross-section TEM studies the SrRuO3/LaA1O3 heterostructural samples were cut along the [100] direction of LaA103. The cut slides were glued face-to-face by joining the SrRu03 surfaces. Plan-view and cross-section TEM specimens were prepared by mechanical grinding, polishing and dimpling, followed by Ar-ion milling.
