Abstract

A series of MoS2 films were prepared by the chemical bath deposition method at different temperatures (60–80 °C). The film thicknesses range from 0.988 up to 10.25 µm. The films are polycrystalline. Vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) was used to study the magnetic properties of these MoS2 films. The experiments were done at room temperature with the magnetic field applied in the film plane. The magnetization curves indicate the coexistence of ferromagnetism and diamagnetism. The saturation and remnant magnetizations, the coercive and saturation fields as well as the diamagnetic susceptibility have been measured and are discussed as a function of the film thickness and the synthesis temperature. A change in the magnetic anisotropy is observed, and the magnetization easy axis direction switches from in-plane to out-of-plane as the thickness increases. The magnetic properties are correlated with the structural ones.
