Effect of substrate temperature on structural, static and dynamic magnetic properties of FeSi/(001) MgO films

FeSi films with different substrate temperature (Ts) were deposited on MgO (001) substrates by a radio frequency magnetron sputtering. During the change of crystal structure from amorphous epitaxial state, magnetic anisotropy experienced three stages: dominant uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (Ts < 400 ℃) and enhanced cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy (400 ℃ £ Ts £ 600 ℃) and weak cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy (Ts = 700 ℃ and 800 ℃). In addition, resonance frequency ƒr firstly decreases, then reaches the maximum value, and finally disappears due to the large coercivity field. These results demonstrate the correlation between the structure, static, dynamic magnetic properties of FeSi films, and provide an effective method to prepare soft films with deterministic uniaxial or cubic magnetic anisotropy for practical application.

Magnetic-Electric Behaviors and Physical Properties of The Thin Films on ITO-Glass Substrate

Polycrystalline BiFeO3 thin films on ITO glass substrates were prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering using a Bi1.1FeO3 target. The samples which were annealed with different annealing conditions are pure without impurities. We measured the magnetic properties and ferroelectricity of the BiFeO3 films. The measurement results show that the magnetic and electrical properties of the BiFeO3 films are significantly different under different annealing conditions.
