Abstract

Thin films of $Si0_2(1000{\AA})/CoNiCr(400{\AA})/Cr$ were fabricated as a function of Cr thickness by KF magnetron sputtering. The saturation magnetization, coercive force and squareness with annealing temperature for these films were investigated. The values of saturation magnetization of $SiO_2/CoNiCr/Cr$ thin films decreased as the thickness of Cr underlayer increased, whereas coercive force increased as the thickness of Cr underlayer increased. The value of Ms was 600 emu/cc and the maximum value of Hc was 550 Oe. Especially, the value of saturation magnetization was rapidly decreased $SiO_2/CoNiCr/Cr(1700{\AA})$ thin films as the annealing temperature increased And the coercive force increased as the annealing temperature increased When annealing temperature was $650^{\circ}C$, the Ms was reduced to 90 % of the as-deposited film. And the Hc was showed maximum 1600 Oe. It was thought that Cr diffusion into CoNiCr layer reduced the magnetic moment of CoKiCr layer. In addition. Hc might he increased due to grain growth perpendicular to the film plane.

$SiO_{2}/CoNiCr/Cr$ 합금 박막을 RF magnetron sputtering 법으로 Cr의 두께를 변화시키면서 제조하였다. 제조된 박막을 진공 열처리하여 열처리 온도에 따른 포화자화, 보자력, 각형비를 조사하였다. $SiO_{2}/CoNiCr/Cr$ 합금 박막에서 포화자화 값은 Cr 하지층의 두께가 증가함에 따라 감소하고 보자력은Cr 하지층의 두께가 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 이러한 박막의 포화자화 값은 600 emu/cc, 최대 보자력은 550 Oe를 나타내었다. $SiO_{2}/CoNiCr/Cr(1700{\AA})$ 합금 박막에서는 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 포화자화 값은 급격히 감소하고 보자력은 증가하였다. 열처리 온도가 $650^{\circ}C$에서 포화자화 값은 as-deposited상태보다도 1/10로 감소하였고 보자력은 1600 Oe로 최대값ㅇ르 나타내었다. Cr 하지층의 두께와 열처리 온도의 증가에 따른 포화자화의 감소는 하지층에서 자성층으로 Cr이 확산하므로써 자기 모멘트의 감소에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 또한 보자력의 증가는 박막 면에 수직한 방향으로 급격한 결정 성장에 기인한 것이다.
