The coercivity and permeability of Fe-Si films can be improved by laminating several layers with either nonmagnetic (SiO2, Al2O3, Al or Mo) or ferromagnetic (Ni, Fe, Co or 20-wt. % Fe–Ni) spacers. It is also found that films made with soft magnetic laminations have an advantage over nonmagnetic or hard magnetic ones. Such behavior is concluded to be attributed to the smaller grain size, and pinhole or exchange coupling of multilayered Fe-Si films by observing domain and grain structures.
