Characterization of soft magnetic thin film by means of single sheet testing

In this paper, a miniature single sheet tester, was used to characterize soft magnetic thin film with a thickness of 1 /spl mu/m. Experiments were performed on Atalante, an amorphous soft magnetic cobalt-alloy thin film on a flexible PET substrate. The magnetic thin film thickness is 1 /spl mu/m and the substrate thickness is typically 23 /spl mu/m. The magnetic coating is applied by dc-magnetron sputtering in a web coater.
