Abstract

Electrochemically deposited magnetic nanostructures arranged in a three-dimensional system are investigated with respect to their cross-talk between each other. The nanostructures are embedded in porous silicon templates with different morphologies which means pores offering dendritic growth of different strengths. An increase of the uniformity of the pores is concomitant with an increase of the smoothness of the metal deposits which strongly influences the magnetic behavior of the system. Less dendritic structures lead to an increase of the coercivity of the nanocomposite which reveals less cross-talk between the metal deposits due to a modification of the stray fields. The system allows in a cheap and simple way to tune the magnetic interactions of magnetic nanostructures in a three-dimensional arrangement.
