摘要：

As-deposited (Fe, FePt, FePtCu)-C nanocomposite films with fixed C atomic fraction x(c)=47 fabricated using facing-target sputtering method at room temperature are composed of similar to 2-3-nm amorphous metal granules buried in a-C matrix. Annealing at high temperatures turns the amorphous granules into alpha-Fe, alpha-Fe- and L1(0)-structured FePt, and L1(0)-ordered FePtCu for Fe-C, FePt-C, and FePtCu-C films, respectively, and makes a-C preferential graphitization. As-deposited granules are superparamagnetic at 300 K, and ferromagnetic at 5 K. The zero-field-cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) curves reveal that there exist strong intergranular interactions at temperatures below 300 K, and the size distribution of granules becomes broad by Pt and Cu addition. The M-H loop of annealed Fe31Pt22C47 films exhibits a two-step saturation behavior because of the coexistence of soft and hard ferromagnetic phases. As the Cu atomic fraction is 14%, the coercivity of annealed Fe23Pt16Cu14C47 films reaches a large value of similar to 11.2 kOe at 5 K and decreases to similar to 7.2 kOe at 300 K.
