Edge-modulated perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in [Co/Pd][subscript n] and L1[subscript 0]-FePt thin film wires

Thickness modulation at the edges of nanostructured magnetic thin films is shown to have important effects on their perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Thin film wires with tapered edges were made from [Co/Pd][subscript 20] multilayers or L1[subscript 0]-FePt films using liftoff with a double-layer r...
