Correlation between growth stress and microstructure in CoCrPt alloy thin film with nanogranular structure
We have investigated in situ stress evolution for (Co82Cr18)(87)Pt-13 /Ti alloy film in an ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) chamber equipped with a highly sensitive optical deflection-detecting system. A very large compressive stress is developed at the very beginning of CoCrPt alloy deposition, and it turns into a smaller tensile stress at about 5-Angstrom CoCrPt thickness. After 20-Angstrom CoCrPt deposition, the tensile stress again turns back to compressive stress. The microstructural studies at the each transition thickness region revealed that microstructural changes play a major role for the observed stress variation at the initial growth stage.

Saturation magnetostriction coefficient measurement of CoCrPt alloy thin films using a highly sensitive optical deflection-detecting system
We report on the saturation magnetostriction coefficient of 500 angstrom (Co82Cr18)(100-x)Pt-x and x angstrom (Co82Cr18)(79)Pt-21 alloy thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The CoCrPt alloy films were prepared by dc magnetron sputtering and the magnetostriction coefficients were measured via a highly sensitive optical deflection-detecting system using a one-dimensional position sensitive detector. The saturation magnetostriction coefficient is increased from -7.23 X 10(-6) to 8.5 X 10(-6) and from -8 X 10(-6) to 14 X 10(-6) with increasing the Pt concentration from 0 to 35 at. % and the film thickness from 400 to 800 angstrom, respectively. X-ray diffractometry study revealed that crystalline orientation in CoCrPt alloy film, which depends on the Pt concentration and the CoCrPt film thickness, strongly influences the evolution of saturation magnetostriction coefficient.
