Abstract

We investigated the compositional dependence of microstructure and the coercivity of FePt-M-B(M{double bond, short}Zr, Nb, La) sputter-deposited films. As-deposited ternary FePt-B films have an amorphous structure and low coercivity. After annealing at 923 K for 1.8 ks, ordered L1₀ FePt nanoparticles were observed. With the adding of the fourth element of M(Zr, Nb, La), the as-deposited films were also of the amorphous structure. After annealing at the same condition, the films show high coercivity of ∼520 kA/m and ordered L1₀ FePt phase are found. Compared with the ternary FePt-B films, the structure, coercivity and grain size vary with the additional element (M) and the compositions. The effects of additive elements on transformation to the L1₀-ordered phase have been studied.
