Transfer of length scales and periodicity of nanowires grown in templates — •Hong-Dan Yan^1,2, Peter Lemmens^1,2, Hanno Dierke¹, Andreas Kruse¹, Dirk Menzel¹, Frank Ludwig³, and Meinhard Schilling^2,3 — ¹IPKM, TU Braunschweig, Germany — ²IGSM, TU Braunschweig, Germany — ³EMG, TU Braunschweig, Germany

A series of magnetic and optical metamaterials based on Fe, Ni, Fe_xNi_1−x and Au wires in porous alumina templates have been synthesized using electrochemistry. Electron microscopy shows a single wire microstructure with uniform size, a diameter of about 30nm - 90nm, and a length controllable by the deposition time. Magnetic measurements (SQUID) show a hysteresis of the magnetization and an anisotropy switching with wire diameter. Work supported by IGSM.
