Effect of an external magnetic field orthogonal to the electrode surface on the electrocrystallization mechanism of Co-Fe films under pulsed applied potential

•Changes in the nucleation mechanism are found when a magnetic field is applied.•CoFe alloys morphology and structure depend on composition and the magnetic field.•Films’ morphology and microstructure are consistent with the proposed mechanisms.•Electrodeposition mechanisms by PRP and constant poten...
