説明

<jats:p>Amorphous Tb-Fe thin films have been produced by dual-gun dc magnetron cosputtering, which allows a moderate range of compositions (spanning about 20 at. %) to be deposited in a single run under identical conditions. The films exhibit clean M-H loops and torque curves which are somewhat anomalous but show consistent trends. Films deposited at room temperature with a composition in the range 17–30 at. % Tb showed a positive intrinsic anisotropy of roughly 3×106 erg/cm3, resulting in an easy axis of magnetization that is perpendicular to the plane of the film, while films with &gt;37 at. % Tb had a small negative intrinsic anisotropy (ca. −2×105 erg/cm3). The temperature dependence of the anisotropy indicates that neither uniaxial stress nor shape anisotropy can account for most of the intrinsic uniaxial anisotropy observed, so we hypothesize that the large anisotropy must be due to pair ordering or a local anisotropy field.</jats:p>
