Popis: | We report systematic investigation of thickness dependent surface topography, magnetic properties and magnetic domain structures of amorphous Fe80Ta8C12 (x nm) films with x=5–100 nm. All the as-deposited films fabricated directly on thermally oxidized Si substrate at ambient temperature using magnetron sputtering technique exhibit amorphous structure. The structural studies reveal that island-like structure in ultra-thin films transforms into continuous one with increasing x>10. In addition, the average surface roughness increases with increasing x, but without any systematic dependency on x. Room temperature magnetic properties illustrate that the paramagnetic nature observed for films with x 97%), low coercivity (HC 3.5 kA/m) and HS (>40 kA/m) and reduced MR/MS ( |
