Microstructure and orientation of iron crystals by thermal chemical vapor deposition with imposition of magnetic field

摘要

Iron crystals were deposited by thermally activated chemical vapor deposition with imposition of magnetic field. In this study, the deposition was conducted by imposing a magnetic field up to 3.5 T in a temperature range between 0.48 and 0.51 of T~Fe_m (melting point of iron), which is below the Curie point of iron (0.58 T~Fe_m). The microstructures and crystal orientations of the deposits were investigated.
