Abstract
We have prepared nanometer-size, isolated CoPt particles. The particle s in the range of 100-300 nm in diameter were formed by annealing thin films in the temperature range of 550-800 degrees C. Films with magne tic coercivity as high as 30 kOe were achieved. The results indicate t hat the high magnetic coercivity was obtained because the crystallite size approaches that the noninteracting single-domain particles. (C) 1 996 American Institute of Physics.
