摘要
Fe(83)Gai(7) thin films were prepared on Si(100) substrates by a dc magnetron sputtering method with sputtering powers 40 W <= P <= 80 W. The structure and magnetic properties of the films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), physical property measurement system (PPMS) and magnetic force microscope (MFM). The results show that all samples exhibit a (110) disordered bcc structure; in addition, the grain size of Fe83Ga17 thin films is 40 similar to 70 nm;with increasing of the sputtering power, the grain size slowly increases and the films become thicker. The remanent magnetization M-r and the remanence ratio M-r/M-s decrease slowly with increasing of the sputtering power while the trend of the coercivity H-C is opposite. However, the change of the saturation magnetization M-s is not apparent. The magnetic domain (MD) patterns are the labyrinth structure and the domain sizes are increased with increasing of the sputtering power.
