Magnetic multilayer films on template-assisted particle arrays — •Judith Moser, Vojko Kunej, Denis Makarov, Günther Schatz, Elke Scheer, and Manfred Albrecht — University of Konstanz, Department of Physics, D-78457 Konstanz, Germany
We present a technique of template-assisted self-assembly of polystyrene particles forming one-dimensional arrangements induced by linear groove structures which were fabricated by e-beam lithography and reactive ion etching. After the particle assembly magnetic Co/Pt multilayer films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy are grown onto the particle chain. The so-formed magnetic caps are single-domain and magnetically exchange decoupled [1] but provide a metal contact between the particles. The magnetic domain configuration along the particle chain is investigated by magnetic force microscopy and compared to micromagnetic simulations. First results on magneto-resistance along the chain structure and on comparable two-dimensional particle arrays are presented and discussed.
This project is funded by the DFG through the Emmy Noether program at the University of Konstanz.
