This presentation describes the structural and magnetic properties, including domain structures, in magnetron-sputtered Co-25% Cr thin films.

Thin film synthesis and magnetic measurements were undertaken at the Data Storage Systems Center at Carnegie Mellon University.

Transmission electron microscopy was performed at the University of Michigan Electron Microbeam Analysis Laboratory.

This work was supported by National Science Foundation Grant No. DMR-8613386.
