Abstract
The texture and the easy axis of magnetization of Strontium ferrite (S rFe12O19) thin films can be controlled by changing power of rf sputter ing, In-plane magnetic anisotropy is developed at a sputtering power o f 330 W (7.5 W/cm(2)), whereas strong perpendicular magnetic anisotrop y (Ku similar to 1 x 10(6) erg/cc) is induced at 60 W power (1.3 W/cm( 2)). Further control over coercivity and morphology san be achieved by changing the ratio R, between oxygen and in the sputtering gas, Coerc ivity decreases with R. Films deposited without oxygen exhibit higher coercivity and less intergranular interaction as compared to films spu ttered with oxygen.
