Investigation of fabrication and hetero-epitaxy relationship of CoCrPt thin films grown on CrW underlayer

This paper reports that longitudinally oriented CoCrPt thin films with Cr₈₅W₁₅ underlayer and CoCr intermediate layer for use of giant magnetoresistance heads were fabricated by magnetron sputtering. Without CoCr intermediate layer, CoCrPt layer deposited directly on Cr₈₅W₁₅ underlayer which has a dominant (200) texture exhibits unexpected (10\bar {1}1) texture. After introducing CoCr intermediate layer, the CoCrPt layer shifts into (11\bar {2}0) texture. This article studies the crystallographic hetero-epitaxy relationship between magnetic layer and underlayer in order to understand the appearance of CoCrPt (10\bar {1}1) texture on (200) textured Cr underlayer and the influence of CoCr intermediate layer on the inducement of CoCrPt (11\bar {2}0) texture. The CoCr intermediate layer plays a crucial role in controlling the microstructure and consequently the magnetic properties of the overlying magnetic layer.     

Reduction of Ordering Temperature of FePt-Al2O3 Thin Films by N2 Addition During Sputtering

We investigate the effect of N2 addition during sputtering on the microstructure and magnetic properties of FePt-Al2O3 thin films. The texture of FePt phase in FePt-Al2O3 thin films changes from （111） to a more random orientation by N2 addition during sputtering. The ordering temperature of FePt phase reduces about 100℃ with appropriate N2 partial pressure. A larger coercivity of 6.0 × 10^5 Aim is obtained with N2 partial pressure about 15%. Structural analysis reveals that a small quantity of Fe3N phase forms during sputtering and the release of N atoms during the post annealing induces a large number of vacancies in the films, which benefits to the transformation of FePt phase from fcc to fct.     

Composition influence on the microstructures and magnetic properties of FePt thin films

The Fex Pt 100x (10nm) (x=31-51) thin films are fabricated on Si (100) substrates by using magnetron sputtering. The highly ordered L1 0 FePt phase is obtained after post-annealing at 700℃in Fe 47 Pt 53 thin film. The sample shows good perpendicular anisotropy with a square loop and a linear loop in the out-of-plane and the in-plane direction, respectively. The variations of the magnetic domains are investigated in the films when the content value of Fe changes from 31% to 51%.     

Magnetic Force Microscopy Study of Alternate Sputtered （001） Oriented L1o Phase FePt Films

We present a magnetic force microscopy study of alternate sputtered （001） oriented L1o phase FePt films. It is found that the root-mean-square value of phase shift of magnetic force images, （ △Ф）rms, can be used to characterize the perpendicular anisotropy for a series of specimens. Therefore, the considerable improvement of the perpendicular anisotropy after post-annealing can be characterized. In addition, the magnetic properties, magnetic and crystalline microstructures before and after post-annealing are compared for the typical [Fe5nm Pt5 nm]10 film with substrate temperature T8 = 500℃, single layer thickness d = 5 nm and total layer thickness D=100 nm to confirm the effect of post-annealing on improving the perpendicular anisotropy for Fe-Pt films.     

Magnetic properties of L1_0 FePt thin film influenced by recoverable strains stemmed from the polarization of Pb(Mg_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_3–PbTiO_3 substrate

The magnetic properties and magnetization reversible processes of L1_0 FePt(3 nm)/Pb(Mg_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_3–PbTiO_3(PMN–PT) heterostructure were investigated by using the phase field model. The simulation results show that the magnetic coercivities and magnetic domains evolution in the L1_0 FePt thin film are significantly influenced by the compressive strains stemming from the polarization of single crystal PMN–PT substrate under an applied electric field. It is found that the magnetic coercivities increase with increasing of the compressive strain. A large compressive strain is beneficial to aligning the magnetic moments along the out-of-plane direction and to the enhancement of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The variations of magnetic energy densities show that when compressive strains are different at the magnetization reversible processes, the magnetic anisotropy energies and the magnetic exchange energies firstly increase and then decrease, the negative demagnetization energy peaks appear at coercivities fields, and the magnetoelastic energies are invariable at large external magnetic field with the energy maximum appearing at coercivities fields. The variations of the magnetoelastic energies bring about the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy so that the magnetoelastic energy is lower at the large external magnetic fields, whereas the appearance of magnetoelastic energy peaks is due to the magnetization-altered direction from the normal direction of the plane of the L1_0 FePt thin film at coercivities fields.

隧穿磁电阻效应磁场传感器中低频噪声的测量与研究

基于隧穿磁电阻效应(TMR)的磁场传感器具有很高的磁场灵敏度, 但同时噪声也较大,有效抑制TMR磁场传感器的噪声, 尤其是低频噪声的抑制对于其在高灵敏度要求场合的应用具有重要的意义. 本文采用高精度数据采集卡搭建了噪声测量系统, 测量了全桥结构TMR磁场传感器的噪声频谱图, 发现TMR传感器的噪声在低频段表现为1/f特性, 同时噪声功率谱密度与工作电流平方成正比关系; 低频噪声在自由层翻转区间内噪声急剧增大, 证明了1/f噪声主要来源于磁噪声, 这一结果为TMR磁场传感器的噪声特性优化指明了方向.
