摘要
The magnetic anisotropy constants of Fe3Pt alloy thin films grown onto MgO(100) and MgO(111) substrates by electron-beam evaporation are investigated in conjunction with structure. It is observed that the orientation of the Fe3Pt films depends on the substrate. Both oriented samples exhibit very large in-plane magnetic anisotropy. The magnetic anisotropy constants K-1 and K-2 are found to strongly depend on the deposition temperature (T-S). The maximum values of K-1 and K-2 obtained are about -4x10(6) and 2x10(7) erg/cc, respectively. A close relationship is observed between the magnetic anisotropy constants and structural parameter.
