Abstract
Mössbauer spectra have been observed for Fe−Ag alloys sputter-deposited on liquid nitrogen cooled substrates and water cooled substrates under several Ar gas pressures, PAr. The magnetic hyperfine field does not depend on the substrate temperature. However, in paramagnetic spectra, a single line component corresponding to isolated Fe atoms in the Ag matrix is more pronounced for the alloys deposited on liquid nitrogen cooled substrates. The alloys deposited under high PAr reveal very weak intensity ratios of the second and fifth lines of the ferromagnetic sextet, indicating a tendency of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy.
