Summary: | In this work, the thickness effect of Fe
52Co
48 soft magnetic films with in-plane anisotropy on static and microwave magnetic properties was investigated. The hysteresis loop results indicated that the static in-plane uniaxial anisotropy field increased from almost 0–60
Oe with increasing film thickness from 100 to 540
nm and well-defined in-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy can be obtained as the thickness reached 540
nm or larger. Based on Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert (LLG) equation, the microwave complex permeability spectra were analyzed and well fitted. The LLG curve-fitting results indicated that the initial permeability increased from 106 to 142 and the resonant frequency was shifted from 4.95 to 4.29
GHz as the film thickness was varied from 540 to 1500
nm. Moreover, it was found that there was a discrepancy between the static and the dynamically determined anisotropy field, which can be explained by introducing an additional effective isotropic ripple field. The decreased ripple field was suggested to result in a significant decrease of damping coefficient from 0.109 to 0.038. |
