Abstract
The magnetic properties in a film with perpendicular anisotropy prepared from two elements evaporated simultaneously from two sources depends on the shape of columnar grain and distribution of these elements in the column. The properties originate in the film preparation conditions: incidence angle and composition ratio. The relation between the columnar grain structure and these conditions for Fe-Cu films evaporated simultaneously, is investigated on the basis of simulation of columnar grains, analysis of magnetic anisotropy and crystallographic study by X-ray diffraction.
