摘要
Co2FeSi thin films were grown onto Si(001) by UHV magnetron sputtering at different substrate temperatures (RT, 300, 400, 450, 500 and 550 degrees C) keeping other sputtering conditions same. The films are disordered at low substrate temperatures and may transform into partially ordered B2 and fully ordered L2(1) phases upon increasing substrate temperatures. X-ray reflectivity analysis revealed an increase in surface roughness with increase in substrate temperature. The GIXRD measurements confirmed the reflectivity results. The magnetic properties of the prepared Co2FeSi films are investigated and correlated with the structural properties.
