Abstract
Abstract An amorphous magnetic film is produced by irradiating laser beams onto a magnetic metallic target and depositing an evaporated material on a substrate. During or after the evaporation process, the film formed on the substrate is annealed at a temperature lower than a crystallization temperature. The annealing process enables elimination of stresses from the film, thereby improving soft magnetic properties.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
83 words
A method of producing an amorphous magnetic film, comprising: (a) disposing a target consisting of a magnetic metal and a substrate in a confronting manner in a high vacuum chamber; (b) heating said substrate to a temperature below a crystallization temperature of a film to be produced; (c) irradiating a laser beam to said target so as to evaporate a target material; and (c) depositing the evaporated target material on said heated substrate so as to produce a thin film on said substrate.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
83 words
A method of producing an amorphous magnetic film, comprising: (a) disposing a target consisting of a magnetic metal and a substrate in a confronting manner in a high vacuum chamber; (b) heating said substrate to a temperature below a crystallization temperature of a film to be produced; (c) irradiating a laser beam to said target so as to evaporate a target material; and (c) depositing the evaporated target material on said heated substrate so as to produce a thin film on said substrate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
17 words
A method according to claim 1, further including applying a potential between said target and said substrate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
52 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein said magnetic metal is Se 75 Si 8 B 17 , said laser beam is a KrF excimer laser whose irradiation power density is approximately 10 J/cm 2 on the surface of said target, and the temperature of the substrate is 550° C. or less.
