Characterization of U-based Thin Films - the UFe2+x Case

cover
We have characterized UFe2+x films prepared by sputter deposition onto fused silica (SiO2) and Si(111) substrates with the film thickness ranging from 75 nm to 900 nm. The X-ray diffraction results showed an amorphous character of the deposited material. Some of the films showed in addition a pattern of highly textured cubic Laves phase. Rutherford Backscattering Spectroscopy with 2 MeV He+ ions has been used to determine the composition, thickness and concentration depth profile of the films. A large ageing affect was observed within 1 month after that the films were exposed to air. Magnetic measurements revealed TC increasing with relative Fe concentration and reaching approx. 450 K in UFe3.0.
