Abstract
Fe thin films exhibited (100) preferential orientation when they were deposited at low deposition rate of $0.1{\AA}/s$ on glass substrates by using facing target sputtering system. The (100) oriented Fe layer induces (100) orientation of Pt layer deposited on it owing to hetero-epitaxial growth. After annealing at $600^{\circ}C$ in $H_2$ atmosphere, FePt films exhibited f.c.t. (001) texture in the whole film caused by inter-diffusion between atoms. We have also confirmed that the homogeneously inter-diffused compositional modulation in the film after the annealing process. Furthermore, annealing process in $Ar+H_2$ atmosphere at $400^{\circ}C$ during Pt deposition was effective for attaining Pt (100) texture. The annealing process during Pt deposition also induced in low annealing temperature and decreased annealing time for attaining the FePt f.c.t. (001) structure.
Glass disk상에 대향 타겟식 스퍼터링(Facing Target Sputtering) 방식을 이용하여 $0.1\;{\AA}/s$의 낮은 증착속도로 증착시킬 경우 b.c.c. (100)면 우선배향성을 확인하였으며, 그 위에 Pt박막을 증착시킨 경우 hetero-epitaxial 성장에 의해 Pt박막이(111)의 조밀면이 아닌 (100)면이 우선배향 되었다. 이렇게 형성된 Fe (100)/Pt (100) 이층막(두께 각 3 nm)을 $600\;^{\circ}C$ 수소분위기에서 열처리함에 의해 막전체에 걸쳐서 f.c.t. (00n)면을 형성시키는 데 성공하고, 또한 Fe (100)면 상에 Pt 박막을 증착시키는 동안 열처리를 하고 증착 이후 수소분위기에서 열처리함에 의해 열처리 시간 및 온도를 크게 낮출 수 있음을 확인하였다.
