Abstract BaFe$_{12}$O$_{19}$ (BaM) thin films with thicknesses ranging from 15 nm-200 nm were deposited on Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$(0001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). X-ray diffraction patterns show that a buffer layer with a thickness of nearly 60 nm forms on the substrate, and then a $c$-axis perpendicularly oriented BaM thin film grows on the buffer layer. Atomic force microscopy results indicate that the BaM thin film exhibits a spiral island growth mode on the buffer layer. Magnetic hysteresis loop results confirm that the buffer layer exhibits no significant magnetic anisotropy, while the BaM thin film exhibits perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The out-of-plane coercivity decreases with increasing BaM thin-film thickness due to the combined effect of grain size growth and lattice strain relaxation. The 200 nm thick film exhibits optimum magnetic properties with $M_{\rm s}=319 $ emu/cm$^{3}$ and $H_{\rm c}=1546 $ Oe.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
