Presence of an oxide layer is also evident from reflectivity fitting analysis. From magnetization studies it is clear that, all the films exhibited strong in-plane anisotropy. Saturation magnetization of films was found to vary with change in film density and oxide layer thickness of films. Saturation magnetization of films deposited on Si substrates found to decrease with decrease in film density.

Films deposited on Si substrates are sensitive to strain with change in film thickness and films deposited on Si/SiO<sub>2</sub> substrates are sensitive to strain with change in deposition temperature.
