Abstract
MnGa films were grown by magnetron sputtering on thermally oxidized Si (Si/SiO2) and glass substrates. Films grown on single-crystal Si (100) substrate with different underlayers were prepared for comparison. It is found that the Si/SiO2 substrate is more suitable for growing high-coercivity MnGa films than the glass substrate, which is the result of the isolated-island-like growth. A coercivity of 9.7âkOe can be achieved for the 10ânm MnGa films grown on Si/SiO2 substrate at substrate temperature TS of 450â°C. Optimized experimental conditions are specified by changing the thickness of the MnGa films and the temperature of the substrates.
