CrPt3 films have been prepared by depositing Cr/Pt multilayers using a magnetron sputterer followed by heat treatment. Small and wide angle x-ray diffraction diagrams, magnetic hysteresis loops, and Kerr rotation angle spectra of the films have been investigated. The films had AuCu3 type ordered alloy structure and strong and weak preferred orientation of {111} and {100} planes parallel to the film surface. It was found that CrPt3 films showed the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy to the film surface, large coercivity of 3.7 kOe, and maximum Kerr rotation angle of 0.65 degrees at about 1100 nm. The origin of the large Kerr rotation was discussed.
