Abstract
Ni-Fe and the Ni-Fe-Cr-Mo alloy films were electrodeposited from a chloride solution containing complexing compounds on ITO/glass substrates. AFM studies revealed a spherical structure for the alloy films with roughnesses from 10 up to 50 nm. The Ni-Fe-Cr-Mo alloy films were found to have a fine-grain structure. The quaternary alloy compounds containing up to 4% Cr and 2% Mo showed higher resistivity and little decrease in magnetoresistance (MR) relative to the Ni80Fe20 alloy compound. The MR of the quaternary alloy compounds was decreased for higher Cr and Mo contents. Moreover, the anisotropy (AMR) was also decreased by the addition of Cr and Mo to Permalloy films. Auger studies indicated that the oxidation resistance of the Ni-Fe alloy films is increased by the addition of the Cr and Mo elements.
