The use of curved surfaces as substrates for thin film deposition induces lateral variation in film thickness, which allows variation in the deposited material properties. [Co/Pd]n multilayers with differen Co thicknesses were deposited on a flat silicon substrate, and densely packed two-dimensional arrays of silica nanospheres with different radii of curvature formed by improved drop-casting method [1]. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray reflectivity (XRR), grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering, SQUID and neutron reflectivity were used to characterise the obtained nanostructure. Compared to the flat multilayer, the cap multilayer shows a different anisotropy axis direction. A change in coercivity as a function of film thickness and radius of curvature is also observed.[1] A.
