A. Garciaarribas et al., INFLUENCE OF THE STRUCTURE IN MAGNETIC-PROPERTIES IN CO-P ELECTRODEPOSITED AMORPHOUS-ALLOYS, Journal de physique. IV, 7(C2), 1997, pp. 997-998
The short range order of a series of Co100-xPx (17<x<26) amorphous all
oys prepared by electrodeposition is studied by EXAFS. The structural
parameters as coordination numbers and interatomic distances have been
found to vary significantly with P concentration. This behaviour cont
rasts with that of Fe-P alloys where the environment of the Fe atoms d
oes not change appreciably with composition. The structural difference
s between both systems are related with clear differences in the magne
tic properties, most of all in the dependence on concentration of the
Curie temperature.
