The effect of thermal annealing on structural and magnetic properties has been investigated for Zn ferrite films deposited on Si (111) substrates using radio frequency magnetron sputtering. The saturation magnetization at room temperature was enhanced upto 303 emu/cm{sup 3} by annealing at relatively low temperature of 200 deg. C and decreased at higher temperatures. The complex permeability {mu}={mu}{sup '}-i{mu}{sup ''} values of the ferrite films as-deposited and annealed at 200 and 400 deg. C were measured at frequency upto 5 GHz. These films exhibited better high-frequency properties, especially, the film annealed at 200 deg. C had a large {mu}{sup '} of 19.5 and high resonance frequency f{sub r} of 1.61 GHz. And the reason was investigated preliminarily based on the bianisotropy model.
