A perpendicular magnetization amorphous thin film of an alloy of samarium, cobalt and bismuth having an easy magnetizing axis perpendicular to a plane of substrate, and the preparation thereof. According to the thin film, a large saturation magnetization is obtained along an easy magnetizing direction perpendicular to the plane of substrate. The thin film can be prepared by depositing samarium, cobalt and bismuth on the substrate without any applying a bias voltage to the substrate.

Perpendicular magnetization film

A perpendicular magnetization film of iron-chromium alloy having an easy magnetization axis perpendicular to a plane of substrate, and the preparation thereof. The perpendicular magnetization film provides a dominant peak corresponding to a lattice constant of 2.07 to 2.08 .ANG. in X-ray diffraction spectrum, and possesses a large saturation magnetization of more than 100 emu/cm.sup.3. The perpendicular thin film can be prepared by depositing iron and chromium on the substrate under vacuum or an atmosphere of argon gas at a low pressure.
