title: Electrodeposition of Fe-Pt films with low oxide content using an alkaline complexing electrolyte.
abstract: Electrochemical deposition of equiatomic Fe-Pt from complexing electrolytes provides precise tuning of alloy stoichiometry, enables close control of the growth process, and results in limited oxygen incorporation. The films grow epitaxially on oriented substrates and the low oxygen content favors transformation from the as-deposited cubic to the high anisotropy L1(0) phase and magnetic hardening upon thermal annealing at temperatures (400-450 degrees C) much lower than previously achieved by other plating processes.
