Abstract

A new method to fabricate arrays of ferromagnetic nanostructures is presented which is based on copying the morphology of self-assembled organic layers via ion milling into ferromagnetic Co/Pt multilayers. The self-assembly of diblock copolymer micelles is used. A very flexible tuning of the magnetic properties is possible via the variation of the multilayer composition. The impact of the growth method on the magnetic properties of the multilayer is described and the spin reorientation in Co/Pt discussed. It is demonstrated that arrays of ferromagnetic and superparamagnetic particles can be fabricated with particle sizes < 20 nm. The proposed method gives direct access to the tailoring of magnetic properties of nanosized objects.
