  • Abstract
    Ordered ferromagnetic–nonmagnetic heterogeneous Fe60Pb40 nanowire arrays were successfully fabricated by alternating current (AC) electrodeposition into nanoporous alumina templates. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image and selected-area diffraction (SAED) pattern analysis showed that the Fe60Pb40 nanowires are polycrystalline with an average diameter of 22 nm and lengths up to several micrometers. X-ray diffraction (XRD) observations indicated that α -Fe and fcc Pb phase coexist and do not form metastable alloy phase. The as-deposited samples were annealed at 200, 300, 400 and 500 ∘C, respectively. Magnetic measurements showed that nanowires have high magnetic anisotropy with their easy axis parallel to the nanowire arrays, and the coercivity of the samples increased with the annealing temperature up to 400 ∘C and reached a maximum (2650 Oe). The change of magnetic properties associated with the microstructure was discussed.
