摘 要:Strip-like Fe Co films were patterned by a traditional lithograph process from intrinsically isotropic continuous Fe Co films. The strip-patterned Fe Co film shows a strong in-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy with easy axis along the length direction of the strip. The angular dependences of remanence ratio, switching field, and coercivity indicate that the magnetization reversal mechanism of the strip-patterned Fe Co film is coherent rotation and domain wall depinning when the applied field is near the hard axis and easy axis, respectively. The consistency of the experimental hysteresis loops of the strip-patterned Fe Co film and calculated hysteresis loops with a simple in-plane uniaxial anisotropy model indicates that the strip-patterned Fe Co film behaves as a single domain. The absence of the domain wall and the strong in-plane anisotropy field make the strip-patterned Fe Co films have much potential for high-frequency application.
