TLDR
The hard magnetic properties and magnetic domain structures of nanopatterned FeCo alloy thin films are experimentally investigated and a relatively large value of the perpendicular uniaxial magnetic anisotropy Ku = 2.1 × 106 J·m−3 was obtained, while the Hc of the nanopatting FeCo layers increased with decreasing dot pattern size.Abstract:
The development of magnetic materials with large uniaxial magnetic anisotropy (K
u) and high saturation magnetization has attracted much attention in various areas such as high-density magnetic storage, spintronic devices, and permanent magnets. Although FeCo alloys with the body-centred cubic structure exhibit the highest M
s among all transition metal alloys, their low K
u and coercivity (H
c) make them unsuitable for these applications. However, recent first-principles calculations have predicted large K
u for the FeCo films with the body-centred tetragonal structure. In this work, we experimentally investigated the hard magnetic properties and magnetic domain structures of nanopatterned FeCo alloy thin films. As a result, a relatively large value of the perpendicular uniaxial magnetic anisotropy K
u = 2.1 × 106 J·m−3 was obtained, while the H
c of the nanopatterned FeCo layers increased with decreasing dot pattern size. The maximum H
c measured in this study was 4.8 × 105 A·m−1, and the corresponding value of μ
0
H
c was 0.60 T, where μ
0 represented the vacuum permeability.read more
