We report that Cu substitution is effective in raising the degree of (001) crystal orientation of FePt grains prepared by rapid thermal annealing on SiO2. We fabricated coupled granular and continuous (CGC) like films such as TbFeCo on FePt grains. The wall coercivity was about twice that of the TbFeCo single layer film. From three-dimensional micromagnetic simulations with Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation, it was confirmed that wall coercivity was enhanced and domain shapes made smooth in CGC film. When the thickness of the TbFeCo layer was thin, wall width was thinner than the theoretical value.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
