Improved resistance to oxidation of Ge-doped Fe3O4 thin films with cation excess composition using a sputtering target of FeO

The correlation between the composition of Ge-doped Fe3O4 thin films, including excess cation from stoichiometry, and resistance to oxidation during heat treatment in air was investigated. The films were prepared on glass substrates by radio-frequency sputtering using a target of Ge chips set on a c...
