The influence of 0 T and 6 T magnetic fields on the structural evolution and magnetic properties of thin films was studied by using EDXS, XRD, AFM and VSM. In this study, only α phase was formed in both thin films. It was found that the application of a 6 T magnetic field obviously decreases the RMS of surface roughness and the grain size. For the magnetic properties of the thin films, the 6 T magnetic field increases the saturation magnetism Ms in-plane and the squareness (Mr/Ms) of the hysteresis loop and decreases the coercive force Hc. This indicates the soft magnetic properties of the thin films have been notably enhanced in-plane by a high magnetic field. The relationship between the structural evolution and magnetic properties was discussed in details.}, DOI = {10.3970/cmc.2013.037.195} }
