Effects of Nd/Fe ratio on the microstructure and magnetic properties of NdFeB thin films

The effects of composition on the microstructure and magnetic properties of NdFeB thin films synthesized by DC magnetron sputtering from targets of Nd 12.1Fe 80.4B 7.5 sintered magnet and Nd-chips have been investigated. The film with a compositional ratio of Nd/Fe=17.6/82.4 deposited at the substra...

description The effects of composition on the microstructure and magnetic properties of NdFeB thin films synthesized by DC magnetron sputtering from targets of Nd 12.1Fe 80.4B 7.5 sintered magnet and Nd-chips have been investigated. The film with a compositional ratio of Nd/Fe=17.6/82.4 deposited at the substrate temperature T s=700°C showed soft magnetic properties with in-plane anisotropy. On increasing the compositional ratio to Nd/Fe=27/73, the coercivity increased to about i H c =1500 kA/m (∼18.9 kOe), and a columnar structure was formed with a strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Further increase of the ratio to Nd/Fe=31/69 resulted in the increase of coercivity to about i H c =2070 kA/m (∼26 kOe). The microstructure, however, changed to spherical grains and the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy decreased. The change of substrate temperature also affected the magnetic properties. The film with Nd/Fe=27/73 deposited at a low temperature of T s=650°C showed high remanence with low coercivity. The increase of the temperature of T s=700°C resulted in high coercivity but low remanence.
