摘要
The microstructural changes in magnetron sputtered Fe-Pd thin films during annealing at 400-500degreesC have been studied by transmission electron microscopy. Room-temperature deposition produced disordered Fe-Pd phase with (111)-twinned grains approximately 18 nm in size. Ll(0)-type ordering was complete for annealing at 450 and 500degreesC after 1.8 ks. accompanied by grain growth (40-70 nm). The ordered FePd grains contained (111)-twins rather than {101}-twins typical of bulk ordered FePd. A critical grain size that is larger than the maximum grain size of 70nm observed here may, exist below which the transformation-strain-induced {101}-polytwin formation is suppressed in Ll(0)-ordered FePd. The metallic Pt overlayers and the Ti and NiCr underlayers selected here produced detrimental dissolution (Pt into Fe-Pd phases) and did not prevent precipitation reactions between Pd and the Si substrate during annealing.
