Si-integrated ultrathin films of phase-pure Y3Fe5O12 (YIG) via novel two-step rapid thermal anneal
Traditional one-step annealing of ultrathin amorphous Y–Fe–O films on Si has been reported to yield ‘incomplete crystallization’. Here, it is shown that films produced by standard anneals (e.g.: 800°C, 3 min) actually contain yttrium iron garnet (YIG) crystallites in a nanocrystalline non-garnet mat...
