Abstract
The effects of oblique deposition to induce high magnetostrictive susceptibility and huge magnetostriction were studied. The giant magnetostrictive Tb-Fe films were prepared by an ion plating process with inclined vapor flux using substrates angled with 0, 30 and 60°. Increasing the substrate angle induced strongly in-plane magnetic anisotropy by the oblique deposition. The magnetic and magnetostrictive characteristics of Tb-Fe films were effected by an oblique anisotropy. The oblique anisotropy of Tb-Fe film may be induced by the shape anisotropy connected with columnar grain.
