K. Takemura et al., ISOTROPIC MAGNETIZATION IN FESE THIN-FILMS ON GAAS SUBSTRATE, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 177, 1998, pp. 1319-1320
FeSe thin films are prepared on GaAs (1 0 0) substrate by a selenizati
on technique. Surface images observed by scanning electron microscopy
(SEM) show polycrystallinity of the films. The sample of 600 nm thickn
ess consists of grains of about 300 nm in diameter with no crystal ori
entation. An isotropic magnetization for both directions of in-plane a
nd perpendicular to the films is obtained from a M-H curve measured by
a vibrating sample magnetometer, which is consistent with the SEM obs
ervation. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
