Abstract
It was proved that the magnetic properties, structure, and residual stress of Fe films electrodeposited from iron(II) chloride solution were strongly dependent on the electrodepositing conditions of the applied current density and the solution temperature. The applied current was varied from 5 to 100 mA/cm2 and the solution temperature was also varied from 20°C to 60°C. In these conditions, lower coercive forces was obtained at lower applied current densities and higher solution temperatures, and it appear. ed that the residual stress was the dominant factor in the magnetic properties of the films. The value of the Q-factor of a coil composed of Cu-wire coated with these Fe films was measured, and the results demonstrated that the Q-factor varied over the range of depositing conditions investigated and Q-factor was dependent on the coercive force.
