Strain and thickness effects on magnetocrystalline anisotropy of CoFe(011) films
Abstract
We investigate MCA of CoFe(011) thin films as a function of strength of strain and film thickness has been studied. It is elucidated that perpendicular magnetocystalline anisotropy (MCA) energy (EMCA) is getting stronger with compressed xy-plane lattice constant while in-plane MCA is become an easy-axis by tensile strain on xy-plane. The reason of the EMCA behaviors can be explained by features of electronic structures.
