  • Abstract
    The behavior of CoPtCr/SiO2 composite thin films with variable percentages of SiO2 (0%→35%) is reported. From measurements of remanence curves and interaction characterization via the delta plot curves, films with 20%→24% SiO2 shows a wider range of switching fields and lower magnitude of interaction in comparison with the films containing a lower concentration of SiO2
