Abstract

Electron beam (e-beam) and X-ray lithographic techniques have been used to fabricate permalloy (Ni80Fe20) and nickel rectangular and triangular dots and antidots on an area of (1 × 1) mm2. Dot dimensions and spacings range from 500 nm to 1 μm and from 250 nm to 50 nm, respectively. The changes of the magnetic properties induced by patterning have been studied by means of magneto-optic Kerr effect (MOKE) magnetometry and the Brillouin light scattering (BLS) technique.
