FexCo100–x(x=100, 65, 50at%) epitaxial thin films were prepared on MgO(110) single-crystal substrates heated at 300°C by ultra-high vacuum molecular beam epitaxy. The film structure and the growth mechanism are discussed. FeCo(211) films with bcc structure grow epitaxially on MgO(110) substrates with two types of variants whose orientations are rotated around the film normal by 180° each other for all compositions. FexCo100–xfilm growth follows the Volmer Weber mode. X-ray diffraction analysis indicates the out-of-plane and the in-plane lattice spacings are in agreement with the values of respective bulk FexCo100–xcrystals with very small errors less than ±0.4%, suggesting the strains in the films are very small. High-resolution cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy shows that periodical misfit dislocations are preferentially introduced in the film at the Fe50Co50/MgO interface along the MgO[11¯0] direction. The presence of such periodical dislocations decreases the large lattice mismatch of about −17% existing at the FeCo/MgO interface along the MgO[11¯0] direction.
