Abstract
Highly resistive (CoFeB)-(SiO2) amorphous films were deposited on glass substrates and polyimide sheets by synchronous dual-rf magnetron sputtering. SiO2 volume fraction dependence of magnetic properties and resistivity was investigated. The as-deposited films for SiO2 volume fraction υ=20 vol.% had low coercivities of Hc=0.2-0.3 Oe, together with high resistivities of 1500-2200 μ Ω cm. The film exhibited an anisotropy field 40 Oe, a relative permeability of 200 and a saturation magnetization of 7.3 kG. The core loss of the films was 1-1.5 J/m3 at 1 MHz for maximum flux density Bm=0.1 T. The loss was found to be as low as those of Co-based ultra-thin ribbons. The films are useful as thin film cores in the micromagnetic elements which work in the MHz range
