Optische Kurzzeit-Wärmebehandlung von FePt-Nanopartikeln im Flug: Einfluss auf Struktur und Magnetismus. / Optical in flight annealing of FePt nanoparticles: Influence on structure and magnetism.

The large magneto-crystalline anisotropy energy of the L10 phase has pushed the interest to the FePt nanoparticles to get smallest possible not superparamagnetic particles for magnetic data storage media. The DC magnetron sputtering process, in an inert gas atmosphere and subsequently ejection into high vacuum via differential pumping in addition with a newly constructed light furnace, allows us to have a predeposition annealing of FePt nanoparticles. The advantage compared to wet chemical process route is, that we can prevent the growing of particles on a substrate.
In order to determine the experimentally hardly accessible temperature of the particles, the thermal history of the particles is rather calculated from the interaction with the light field along the flight path through the light furnace used for the in-flight annealing. The results obtained for the particle temperature are corroborated by experimental findings on the sintering of agglomerated particles and change in magnetic properties due to heating over the L10 stability temperature. The experiments reveal that the effect of the thermal treatment on both the structural and magnetic properties of the FePt nanoparticles strongly depends on the particles’ crystal structure. The magnetic behavior shows a size depending effective uniaxial magnetic anisotropy constant. This behavior is strongly correlated to the structure of the 5 nm to 8 nm L10 FePt particle.
