Abstract

Amorphous indium and zinc oxides (IZO) doped with various concentration of Fe were prepared by a sol–gel method. 1% Fe doping indicated the ferromagnetic behavior and showed the magnetic relaxation peaks in addition to a paramagnetic doublet. The films on glass plate were deposited by pulsed laser ablation under 10 − 6 Torr, using IZO powder with 5% Fe. After annealing at 400˚C in air, the amorphous films showed Kerr effect. It was found from DCEMS measurement that metallic Fe and paramagnetic Fe3 +  were produced from the paramagnetic Fe2 + , whereas the film consisted of only two paramagnetic Fe3 +  and Fe2 +  before annealing.
