Abstract

Nd2Fe14B films with the c-axis perpendicular to the film plane were deposited by introducing Mo (110) underlayer on the SiO 2 substrates. When the temperature of the substrate during the deposition of the Nd-Fe-B layer was 600 °C, the demagnetization curve exhibited the coercivity of Hc=11 kOe. We observed an Hc increase of up to 14 kOe by capping the film with the Nd overlayer and post-annealing at 500°C. Cross-sectional TEM observation and NBD analysis suggest that the Nd in the overlayer is in the oxide state with either cubic-NdO2 or hcp-Nd2O3 structures. © 2010 IOP Publishing Ltd.
