Structural and magnetic characterizations of nanocrystalline films of (Ni₀.₆₇Co₀.₂₅Fe₀.₀₈)₈₉₋ₓZr₇B₄Cuₓ (x=0,1) alloys are reported. The films were grown on quartz substrates using pulsed laser deposition from homogeneous targets of the above compositions at substrate temperatures ranging from ambient to 600°C. Structural properties were measured by x-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy, whereas the magnetic properties were measured by vibrating sample magnetometry and ferromagnetic resonance. The resulting films exist as a two phase alloy with face-centered-cubic metallic grains suspended in an amorphous matrix. For both the x=1 and x=0 alloys, the softest magnetic properties (coercivity Hc < 0.5 Oe, 4πMs …

Nanocrystalline structured films of the alloy Ni₁₁Co₁₁Fe₆₆Zr₇B₄Cu₁ were deposited by pulsed laser ablation deposition onto fused quartz substrates. A substrate temperature of 300°C was found to produce films consisting of body-centered-cubic (bcc) metallic grains suspended in an amorphous matrix. The bcc grain size ranged from 5 - 8 nm for substrate temperatures up to 300°C. Measured values of coercivity were consistently below 4 Oe for films having a saturation magnetization, as 4π Ms, of ∽16 kG with in- plane uniaxial anisotropy fields of 25 to 30 Oe. The ferromagnetic resonance peak- to- peak derivative linewidth was measured to be 34 …
