The bulk and thin film behaviour of softmagnetic materials have extensively been studied in the past. Concerning the increase of density in magnetic data storge systems magnetic clusters become interesting because of their particular size dependence of electronic and magnetic properties. We report on the magnetic properties of size-selected clusters, deposited on bare W(110) and on a thin Ni(111)/W(110) film system, by the element specific XMCD spectroscopy allowing the determination of spin and orbital moments. The crystalline nanoparticles consist of pure Fe and Co as well as an FeCo alloy and exhibit tunable diameters between 5-15 nm. The clusters are produced using an UHV compatible gas aggregation source avoiding any oxidation. Mass separation is carried out by a subsequent electrostatic quadrupole. The shape after deposition was investigated in situ by STM and compared with the lateral size being determined by HRTEM. This enables a direct correlation of structural and magnetic properties in combination with the XMCD measurements.
