Abstract
Ni-Co-Fe ternary alloy films were electrodeposited from a sulfate bath. The effects of the saccharin concentration on the deposit stress behavior of these films were investigated. When the saccharin concentration was 0. 004 M, the deposit stress was the lowest (61 MPa, tensile stress mode). Then, the relation between the deposit stress and the magnetic properties was investigated. As the deposit stress of the Ni-Co-Fe thin films decreased from 307 to 61 MPa, the coercivity and the squareness decreased from 6. 17 to 1. 35 Oe and from 0. 65 to 0. 18, respectively. The dependence of the deposit stress on the temperature in the plating bath was investigated. As the temperature in the plating bath was increased from 25 to 50 °C the deposit stress of the Ni-Co-Fe alloy films decreased from 61 to 32 MPa.
