We report on the antiphase boundaries network of thin films. -thick samples were epitaxially grown by molecular beam epitaxy onto substrates. The magnetic properties of the samples have been interpreted within the framework of a one-dimensional model of antiphase boundary (APB), which predicts that the magnetization is given by in the approach to saturation regime. Transmission electron micrographs of several samples were used to extract the statistical parameters of the APB network, particular emphasis being put on the relevance and statistical significance of the studied parameters. The mean antiphase domain size , as the antiphase boundaries characteristic length extracted from a fractal analysis, vary as the square root of film thickness/deposition time and are within the range. The APB density was found to vary as as expected from the fractal …
