Cobalt-based magnetic nanostructures grown by focused-elctron-beam-induced deposition. — •Evgeniya Begun, Johannes Schwenk, Fabrizio Porrati, and Michael Huth — Physikalisches Institut, Goethe-Universität, D-60438 Frankfurt am Main, Germany
The fabrication of magnetic nanostructures by means of the direct-writing technique focused-electron-beam-induced deposition (FEBID) is an alternative to more conventional lithographic methods. We have grown magnetic cobalt structures by FEBID using the precursor dicobaltoctacarbonyl Co2(CO)8. The obtained structures have a large metal content of about 85 at.% as compared to other metal-based deposits grown by the same technique, such as tungsten-based structures with 34 at.% maximum tungsten content and platin-based structures with about 24 at.% maximum platin content. We present a growth strategy for cobalt structures with tunable metal content. In particular, we show the influence of different combinations of electron-beam energy and current, the dwell time and the refresh time on the deposit composition, which was determined by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) at 5 keV.
First results of magnetotransport measurements on these cobalt-based structures are presented.
