Abstract
High spatial resolution chemical imaging results provided the first di rect experimental evidence illustrating nanosegregation in thin films of sputtered Tb-Fe alloys. The observed chemical segregation appeared to result from the initial nucleation and growth of stable Fe-rich amo rphous phase. The measured properties such as local fluctuation and ma gnetization reversal processes are explained on the basis of Mis chemi cal segregation effect.
