D. Garcia et al., MAGNETIC DOMAINS AND TRANSVERSE INDUCED ANISOTROPY IN MAGNETICALLY SOFT COFEB AMORPHOUS THIN-FILMS, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 34(4), 1998, pp. 1153-1155
CoFeB amorphous thin films have been prepared by radio frequency magne
tron sputtering. The objective of the work has been to obtain very sof
t thin films, and to correlate their domain structure with the induced
anisotropy. Tailored anisotropies were induced by either growth under
stress, or by post-deposition annealing in the presence of a magnetic
field.
