摘要
Thin films of cobalt have been deposited by photo-assisted metal-organic chemical vapour deposition. Samples of thickness < 60 nm, grown at 110 degreesC, exhibit inverse hysteresis when a magnetic field is applied in a particular direction normal to the film. Magnetic remanence studies reveal a partial unidirectional anisotropy, together with competing tendencies towards positive and negative remanence. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
