  • Abstract
    The effects of thin oxide seed layers on the magnetic and structural properties of RF-sputtered CoCr films have been investigated. A 200 A thick Co oxide seed layer reactively-sputtered on amorphous cover glass and silicon dioxide substrates increased the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy constant (Kl) by as much as 40% and decreased the HCP
