## Abstract The magnetic properties and surface morphology of CoFeNi alloy films electrodeposited under external magnetic field were investigated. It was observed that crystallographic anisotropy in CoFeNi films was induced due to the preferential orientation of applied magnetic field. In addition,

Abstract
The effect of an external magnetic field with a flux density of 0.2 T and different configurations relative to the plane of the sample (normal‐to and in‐plane) on the nucleation and growth of CoFe nanostructures has been investigated. CoFe nanostructures were grown on N‐type Si (111) substrate using an e‐beam evaporation system. The samples were subjected to an external magnetic field of 2 T normal‐to and in‐plane to the plane of the samples during the growth period. The influence of the magnetic field on the morphology of the CoFe nanostructures was studied using atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Significant changes in the structural characteristics due to the influence of the magnetic fields were evident. Further, the influence of the external magnetic field on the magnetic properties of the materials was analyzed using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and the composition of the samples was analyzed using energy dispersive X‐ray spectrometry. These results indicate that the easy axis of magnetization in both the samples (normal‐to and in‐plane) is along the direction of the applied magnetic field.
