A study is performed of the relationship between the sizes of cobalt crystallites and the coercive and anisotropic properties of Co–P films obtained via chemical deposition. The emergence of induced anisotropy in films obtained at low pH (7.2–8.7) is due to size effects that transform the cobalt’s crystal lattice from face-centered cubic to hexagonal close-packed as the film grows in a magnetic field.
