Moessbauer study of nanogranular ferromagnetic FeCo films is presented. Two ways of production of nanocomposite systems were employed: (i) hollow cathode plasma jet deposition process, and (ii) laser ablation from Fe-Co metallic targets by means of a KrF excimer laser and r.f. magnetron sputtering. Complementary information on the composition of the samples were obtained by nuclear magnetic resonance of {sup 57}Fe and {sup 59}Co nuclei, conversion electron Moessbauer spectroscopy, and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The films contain crystalline nanoparticles, 5-20 nm in size, embedded in an amorphous matrix.
