摘要

Nanocrystalline FeCoHf films with Hf composition gradient were prepared by gradient sputtering method at room temperature. A uniaxial magnetic anisotropy with high anisotropy field H(k) up to 547 Oe was achieved after magnetic annealing with external field along the gradient direction. Ultrahigh ferromagnetic resonance frequency over 7 GHz was obtained in magnetic annealed gradient sputtered films. The origin of ultrahigh ferromagnetic properties in gradient sputtered films is discussed.
