Nanocrystalline γ′-Fe4N thin films were synthesized on single crystal Si (1 0 0) substrate by facing target magnetron sputtering at a mixture of Ar/N2 gas discharge; and their structure; morphology; and magnetic properties at room temperature and low temperature were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD); scanning electron microscopy (SEM); and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM); respectively. The results showed that the films were γ′-Fe4N with an average grain size of 55 nm; which had a highly preferred orientation along (1 1 1). The ratio of remanent magnetization Mr over saturated magnetization Ms at room temperature for γ′-Fe4N was 0.528; which indicated that the films had a single easy magnetized direction. In the temperature range of 80-350 K; the saturation magnetization Ms and coercive force Hc increased; whereas the ratio of Mr/Ms decreased with decreasing temperature. The relation between the coercive force Hc and temperature T observed a T1/2 law; and the coercivity at T = 0 K of 356.87 Oe and blocking temperature of 667 K were acquired; respectively; However; the relation between Ms and T did not observe the Bloch T3/2 law; which meant that the interaction among spin waves should be considered. Through fitting Ms-T equation; the saturation magnetization at T = 0 K of 202 emu/g; Bloch constant of 1.0 × 10-4 K-3/2; and exchange interaction constant of 1.537 × 10-21 were obtained; respectively. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.
