Iron thin films have been grown by DC magnetron sputtering using Si(100) wafers as substrates, and then oxidized in a well-controlled oxygen atmosphere in the vacuum chamber. Film thickness is about 50 nm, and grains forming these samples do not exceed 20 nm. In order to control structural propertie
