Abstract
The structure of electroless deposited Co0.9W 0.02P0.08 thin films and their evolution with thermal annealing were presented. It was shown that as-deposited microstructure was comprised of an amorphous CoWP component and nanocrystallites of hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) Co, approximately 5 nm in size. The isothermal anneals showed that the rate of nucleation with time of the hcp Co grains was constant.
