Abstract: The segregation behavior of α-Fe particles in Cu-Fe film prepared by magnetron sputtering was studied by X-ray scattering and X-ray diffraction. The results show that the roughness of the film surface increases with the sputtering time increasing. The as-sputtered films are super saturation solid solution of Cu-Fe. After annealing at 500℃, α-Fe particle can be segregated from the Cu matrix. The orientations α-Fe particles in the annealed film without magnetic field are random. But the clear texture of α-Fe particles in the annealed film with magnetic field is formed, and the 〈001〉 direction of α-Fe particles tends to be parallel to the magnetic field direction.
