Structure and Magnetic Properties of .ALPHA.'-FeCo-C Sputtered Films.

Formability and thermal stability of α′ phase in (Fe1−y Coy)–(B, C, N) films

“…In order to clarify the magnetism of α″ phase, it is necessary to synthesis α″ phase in various systems. The authors have already synthesized α′-Fe-N [3], α′-Fe-C [4], α′-Fe-B [5], α′-(Fe 1-y Co y )-N [6], α′-(Fe 1-y Ni y )-N [7], and α′-(Fe 1-y Co y ) -C [8] films. However, it was found that the compositional range where the α′ phase could be formed is quite different against the substituents/interstituents to α-Fe.…”
