摘要
Initial stress (sigma(i)) of a room-temperature deposited FePt films was manipulated to study the order-disorder transformation. We observed that, while sigma(i) was increased from -1.01 (compressive) to 0.18 GPa (tensile), the phase transformation activation energy decreased from 0.387 to 0.23 eV/atom. This causes a reduction in ordering temperature of about 100 degrees C. We also found that densification induces an increase in tensile stress of about 1 GPa before ordering. In the films with small sigma(i), strong tension facilitates the nucleation of L1(0) FePt; however, if highly compressive sigma(i) cancels the densification tension, ordering is retarded causing higher ordering temperature.
