Method for heat-treating amorphous alloy films

摘要

Amorphous alloy films are heat-treated in the presence of a magnetic field directed in a particular direction so as to suppress induced magnetic anisotropy in the film. The directed magnetic field includes a vertical magnetic field whose direction is perpendicular to the plane of the film, and a rotating magnetic field whose direction is being rapidly changed within a parallel plane with respect to the plane of the amorphous alloy film.
