Abstract

Although considerable work has been done investigating the properties of arrays of magnetic elements, there have been few investigations on the reverse geometry, i.e., an array of nonmagnetic regions defined within a magnetic thin film. The 10 Hz BH loops. 10-500 MHz permeability spectra, and domain patterns of homogeneous, single layer 100 nm radio frequency (rf) sputtered Ni81Fe19 thin films with arrays of 23-, 50-. and 100-μm-diam holes defined by laser ablation were measured. The holes were defined in a grid along the hard and easy axes of the sample. Letting (x,y) represent, respectively, the hole spacing parallel to the easy and hard axes, the point to point spacing of the ablated circular regions was varied from (5, 2 mm) to (0.1, 0.1 mm),
