N2 - Certain substitutional additions to Fe can increase both its resistivity and magnetostriction λ. Recently Fe-Ga has been investigated as a bulk magnetostrictive material, with maximum λ localized along the '100'. Further, it has been discovered that λ along '100' increased from ∼300 to ∼350 ppm when the samples were quenched, rather than furnace-cooled. Fe-Ga, due to its low anisotropy and high magnetostriction is an attractive candidate as a high magnetostrictive susceptibility MEMS material. In order to investigate the thin film properties of Fe-Ga materials epitaxial fabrication is necessary, in order to locate the '100' in specific orientations.
