Volume 2, Issue 2 , 2017, , Pages 76-79

https://doi.org/10.5185/amp.2017/203

Abstract
  Thin films of Co2MnSi are grown on n-doped Si (100) and SiO2 (100) substrates by RF sputtering. The deposition time to grow the films is varied, once for ten minutes and another for an hour at a particular substrate temperature 600oC and keeping all the other parameters same. The Co2MnSi thin films deposited ...  Read More
