Abstract

Cr/SmCo5/Crfilms were fabricated by a DC facing targets magnetron sputtering. The influences of sputteredArpressure and substrate temperature on their microstructure and magnetic properties were investigated. Magnetic measurements indicate that the optimal substrate temperature was 450°C, and the film deposited at 2 PaArpressure had the largest in-plane coercivity (2403.54 Oe). NoSmCo5diffraction peaks exceptCr(110) peak with body-centered-cubic structure were seen in all the samples by X-ray diffusion. The Needle-like grains of the film deposited at lowArpressure were observed by atomic force microscope. The domain pattern of the film fabricated at 2 PaArpressure showed more uniform. When the sputteredArpressure was 2 Pa, the narrowest switching field distribution (0.57) was obtained, indicating a narrower grain size distribution. TheδMvalue was nearly zero for the film deposited at 2 PaArpressure, and this indicated that there was almost noninteraction between grains.
