Brunsch, A; Schneider, J

Amorphous GdCo films with strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were vacuum deposited by thermal evaporation of the constituents in an oxygen atmosphere of at least 3 x 10/sup -8/ Torr. In this paper the fabrication technique and the magnetic properties of the resulting GdCo films will be reported.
