N2 - Thin-films of Ni xZn 1-x:Fe 2O 4 [(Ni,Zn)-ferrite] are grown by means of RF sputtering on Si(100) and (111) substrates, corresponding to the orientation of Si cantilevers for AFM/MFM measurements. We Find that the ferrite can be sputtered directly onto the Si surfaces, but an additional annealing step is required to obtain a purely polycrystalline, soft magnetic film. The inicrostructure of the films is investigated employing transmission electron microscopy, electron baclcscatter diffraction and magnetic force microscopy.
