About 3.0 μm thick SmCo-based films with additives of Fe, Cu, and Zr were deposited on Si substrates. Based on a developed semiempirical theoretical model, the dependence of the film composition on the sputtering parameters was discussed. The experimental results show that the Sm concentration increases with decreasin…

In this paper, we present a theoretical study of magnetic properties of MPo (M=Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe) compounds in the zinc-blend structure using full-potential linear augmented plane wave method. Our calculation indicates that MnPo and FePo are antiferromagnetic, whereas TiPo, VPo, and CrPo are magnetic. The ferromagneti…

The changes in polarization and coercive voltage of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin film of 130 nm in thickness were measured under hydrostatic pressure up to 1.5 GPa. By converting the isotropic loading to an equivalent out-of-plane uniaxial compressive loading, it was found that these results were consistent with…
