Thin epitaxial films of the Heusler compound Co2FeSi — •Horst Schneider1, Sabine Wurmehl2, Gerhard Jakob1, Claudia Felser2, and Hermann Adrian11Institut für Physik, Universität Mainz, Staudinger Weg 7, 55128 Mainz, Germany — 2Institut für Anorganische Chemie und Analytische Chemie, Universität Mainz, Staudinger Weg 9, 55128 Mainz, Germany

Bulk samples of the Heusler compound Co2FeSi (CFS) possess a high Curie temperature of 1100 K. An integer magnetic moment of 6 µB/fu suggests halfmetalicity. By using pulsed laser deposition in UHV as well as RF sputtering we prepared thin CFS films on Al2O3 (1120) and MgO (100). X-ray analysis reveals that these films grow (110)-oriented on sapphire or (100)-oriented on MgO. They exhibit the fully ordered L21 structure. Magnetic properties were investigated by VSM- and SQUID-measurements, electronic properties by transport measurements. AFM and SEM allowed the analysis of the films’ surfaces.
