Abstract
We report the results of polarized Co K EXAFS experiments on a series of Co Pt3 films grown by molecular beam epitaxy on (100) MgO single crystal subst rates over a range of temperatures from 473 K to 1073 K. These samples exhi bit substantial perpendicular magnetic anisotropy that is strongly dependen t on the substrate growth temperature T-g. We measure a preference for in-p lane Co-Co pairs that is correlated with the magnetic properties.
