Soft magnetic thin films of NiFeCr were prepared using electrodeposition in various bath temperature. NiFeCr deposited films are textured with FCC phase preferred orientation. Experimentally observed soft magnetic property of thin films for different temperature was compared.The addition of chromium can enhance magnetic and mechanical properties of NiFe thin films. Electrodeposited NiFeCr films were prepared at different temperature (30, 50, 70 and 90 °C) and they were subjected to morphological, structural, magnetic and mechanical characterization analysis. Nickel content was maximum as 51.36 wt % at 90 °C. The chromium content increased when electrolytic bath temperature was increased. NiFeCr films were bright and uniformly coated on the surface. Also the deposits of NiFeCr films were in nano scale and the average crystalline size was around 30 nm. Thin films prepared at high temperature exhibited a high saturation magnetization and low coercivity. The micro hardness of NiFeCr was 272 VHN at 90 °C.

Nickel, iron films are vitally used in new generation recording heads, designing of microelectro mechanical devices and magnetic random access memory. The addition of tungsten (W) can enhance magnetic and mechanical properties of NiFe thin films. Electrodeposited Ni-Fe-W films were prepared at different temperature (30, 50, 70 and 90 0 C) and they were subjected tomorphological, structural, magnetic and mechanical characterization analysis. Nickel content was maximum as 61.41 wt% at 90 o C. The tungsten content increased when electrolytic bath temperature was increased. Ni-Fe-W films were bright and uniformly coated on the surface. Also the deposits of Ni-Fe-W films were in nano scale and the average crystalline size was around 22 nm. Thin films prepared at high temperature exhibited a high saturation magnetization and low coercivity. The micro hardness of Ni-Fe-W was 221 VHN at 90 o C.
