Conclusions
-
1.
Anisotropy can be induced in chemically precipitated iron-nickel-phosphorus films either by applying a magnetic field during the precipitation or by using a substrate which has been subjected to directed polishing.
-
2.
The change in the coercive force in the transition from the easy axis to the hard axis in the case in which the anisotropy is induced by a magnetic field is half the change in the other case, so a magnetic field is evidently less effective than directed polishing here.
-
3.
In the case in which the anisotropy is induced by a magnetic field the easy axis makes a right angle with the field; in the case of directed polishing, the easy axis is parallel to the polishing direction. These results imply that different mechanisms operate to induce the anisotropy in the two cases.
