Pure and Fe (7 at.%) doped In 2 O 3 thin films were grown onto the glass substrates by electron beam evaporation technique. The structural and magnetic properties of the pure and Fe doped In 2 O 3 thin films have been studied. The undoped and Fe doped In 2 O 3 thin films shown ferromagnetic property at room temperature. A magnetization of 24 emu/cm 3 was observed for pure In 2 O 3 thin films. The magnetization of 38.23 emu/cm 3 was observed for the Fe (7 at.%) doped In 2 O 3 thin films. © 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.
