摘要： A single layer of CoFeB and a multilayer of CoFeB--MgO films are prepared by means of DC/RF magnetron sputter deposition. The excellent microwave properties and high electrical resistivity are simultaneously achieved in the discontinuous multilayer structure of [Co44Fe44B12(0.7nm)/MgO(0.4nm)]_{40} film. This film has a high permeability ({μ \prime }) (larger than 100 below 2.1GHz), a high magnetic loss (μ'') (larger than 100 in a range from 1.5 to 3.3GHz), a resistivity of 3.3× 10*

Abstract: A single layer of CoFeB and a multilayer of CoFeB--MgO films are prepared by means of DC/RF magnetron sputter deposition. The excellent microwave properties and high electrical resistivity are simultaneously achieved in the  discontinuous multilayer structure of [Co$_{44}$Fe$_{44}$B$_{12}$(0.7 nm)/MgO(0.4 nm)]$_{40}$ film. This film has a high permeability ($\mu \prime $) (larger than 100 below 2.1 GHz), a high magnetic loss ($\mu''$) (larger  than 100 in a range from 1.5 to 3.3 GHz), a resistivity of 3.3$\times 10^{3}\mu \Omega \cdot$ cm, a saturation magnetization of 1.2 T, and an in-plane uniaxial anisotropy field of 5.5 kA/m. The microstructure and the  surface topography of the film are also analysed. The relatively large surface roughness for the discontinuous film is responsible for the wide frequency band of magnetic loss. The magnetic loss and the high resistivity  indicate that the discontinuous CoFeB--MgO multilayer film has potential applications in microwave absorbers and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials in a GHz frequency range.
