Abstract
Continuous magnetic films, consisting of regions with different magnetic properties, are onealternative to patterned magnetic media, where the super-paramagnetic limit isapproached at high package densities. For a detailed study of possible interactionsbetween neighbouring magnetic elements in such a continuous film a model system wasdesigned, allowing the efficient use of different experimental techniques as polarisedneutron reflectometry and Kerr microscopy for complementary analysis.
