"Morphology controlled magnetic interactions of porous Silicon embedded nanostructures";
ECS Transactions, 64 (2015), 47; 9 - 14.

In the frame of this work porous silicon templates with different
morphologies, especially with respect to the roughness of the porewalls
have been fabricated and subsequently filled with diverse
ferromagnetic metals to fabricate self-assembled three dimensional
arrays of nanostructures (wires, particles) with distinct magnetic
properties. The fabricated templates offer a quasi-regular selfassembled
pore-arrangement with oriented pores. Also the porefilling
is self-assembled by electrochemical deposition and there
are multiple possibilities to tailor the magnetic behavior of these
systems such as material, morphology, inter particle distance or
interfaces. One critical parameter for this purpose is the roughness
of the pore walls and the surface of the metal structures,
respectively. Within the pores of these templates ferromagnetic
metals have been deposited and the modification of the magnetic
properties correlated to the morphology of the different templates
has been figured out.
