Effect of Cu,Cr Co-Doped on Structure and Magnetic Properties of Sm2Co17 Alloy Films

Article Preview

Abstract:

Sm2Co17:Cu,Cr films growing on Cr buffer layer and Cu seed layer were prepared by pulsed laser deposition(PLD) method based on Si(100) substrate. The results showed that Cu and Cr co-doped in SmCo films made the refinement of crystal grain and the increase of coercivity of SmCo. Beside, the experiments found that the incorporation of Cu and Cr in SmCo films resulted in a positive effect of the exchange bias for SmCo-CuCr system. We suggested that the mechanism of the exchange bias origins from the interaction of ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic state (FM-AFM, SmCo-CuCr). Meanwhile, the magnetic measurment of added magnetic field and zero-field-cooled (FC-ZFC) at temperature range of 10K~300K has further confirmed the critical value of FM-AFM tansform is about 80K, which is suggested that it was attributed to the coupling competition of FM phase and AFM phase.
