Abstract:
1. Method for producing an element including a substrate having a plurality of nanocylinders deposited thereon, the method comprising: providing the substrate; covering the substrate with a nanoporous Al alternately vapor-depositing, at vapor-deposition temperatures from 250° C. to 400 ° C., the covered substrate with atoms of a magnetic element and atoms of a non-magnetic element so as to provide alternating superposed layers of the atoms of the magnetic element and the atoms of the nonmagnetic element that form the plurality of nanocylinders, each of the nanocylinders including at least four of the superposed layers, each of the superposed layers having from 1 to 10 atomic layers; and removing the nanoporous Al wherein the element includes at least one of a magnetic storage medium, a switching element and a sensor.
