Abstract

The magnetic properties and structure of FeRh thin film pitaxially grown onto MgO(001) substrate were studied by MPMS(Magnetic Properties Measure System) and in-situ temperature synchrotron XRD(X-ray Diffraction). The transition temperature of FeRh thin films was around 380K. Both M-T curve and d-spacing changes correspond to each other very closely.
