Abstract:Co36-40Fe64-60 films were electrodeposited on Cu/Si substrates from electrolytes containing variable amounts of Fe3+, to control the film’s oxygen content. The films were body centered cubic with grain sizes of 10 to 20 nm. Analytical electron microscopy was used to determine oxygen distributions and bonding states in the films. Intergranular trivalent Fe2O3 was distributed along grain boundaries in the films with highest oxygen content. A lower volume fraction of intragranular FeO particles were observed in l… Show more
“…Previously, we have shown [1,2,3] Z contrast images of nanodistributions of different Fe oxides in nanocrystalline room temperature electrodeposited Co 40 Fe 60 films and corresponding energy dispersive (EDS) and electron energy loss (EELS) spectra recorded at 200 keV in an uncorrected JEOL 2010F. The objective was determination of oxygen distribution, valence state and crystallinity which affect the film's magnetic properties.…”

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.
