摘要
Sm17Co83/Fe65CO35 (at. %) multilayer films are prepared on MgO(110) substrates at 500 degrees C by ultra-high vacuum molecular beam epitaxy. The film crystallographic properties during formation are investigated by in-situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction. The 1st Fe-Co layer epitaxially grows on the substrate with two variants whose orientations are rotated around the film normal by 180 each other. The 1st Sm-Co layer formed on the 1st Fe-Co layer involves a small volume of amorphous phase in addition to epitaxial (1 (1) over bar 00)) crystal of RT5 structure with the c-axis lying in the film plane. The crystallographic quality of 2nd Fe-Co layer is inferior to that of 1st Fe-Co layer. The 2nd Sm-Co layer is composed of polycrystal and amorphous phases. The crystallographic properties of Sm-Co and Fe-Co layers are delicately influenced by those of lower layers. The Sm-Co/Fe-Co multilayer films involving Sm-Co(1 (1) over bar 00)RT5, epitaxial crystal show in-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropies reflecting the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of SmCo5 crystal. The coercivity increases with increasing the volume of Sm-Co (1 (1) over bar 00)RT5 crystal. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
