Abstract

A nanogranular magnetic film includes a structure including first phases comprised of nano-domains dispersed in a second phase. The first phases include at least one selected from the group consisting of Fe, Co, and Ni. The second phase includes at least one selected from the group consisting of O, N, and F. A ratio of a volume of the first phases to a total volume of the first phases and the second phase is 65% or less. The nanogranular magnetic film has a porosity of 0.17 or more and 0.30 or less.

Claims (12)

1 . A nanogranular magnetic film comprising a structure including first phases comprised of nano-domains dispersed in a second phase, wherein

the first phases include at least one selected from the group consisting of Fe, Co, and Ni;

the second phase is formed from a compound selected from the group consisting of: SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , AlN, ZnO, MgF 2 , SnO 2 , GaO 2 , GeO 2 , Si 3 N 4 ·Al 2 O 3 , and any combination thereof;

a ratio of a volume of the first phases to a total volume of the first phases and the second phase is 65% or less; and

the nanogranular magnetic film has a porosity of 0.17 or more and 0.30 or less.

2 . The nanogranular magnetic film according to claim 1 , wherein

the first phases comprised of the nano-domains have an average size of 30 nm or less.

3 . The nanogranular magnetic film according to claim 1 , wherein

a total of Fe, Co, and Ni occupies 75 at % or more in the first phases.

4 . An electronic component comprising the nanogranular magnetic film according to claim 1 .

5 . The nanogranular magnetic film according to claim 1 , wherein

the nanogranular magnetic film is formed on a substrate.
