Recently, we have successfully studied the growth of ferromagnetic Co/Pt multilayers with perpendicular anisotropy on various substrates. Utilizing SiO2 cores of micelles as shadow mask [1] we could create ferromagnetic nanodots in the range < 20 nm [2]. For the purpose of producing nanodots in solution we have investigated the growth and nanodot fabrication on NaCl. In this talk we report on the preparation of cleaved NaCl surfaces that is necessary to get a layer-by-layer growth of the multilayer and a monomicellar coverage via spin coating of the micelles. In contradiction to the results obtained with Si and SiO2, multilayers of composition (Co0,8 nm/Pt2 nm)4 have an in-plane easy plane behavior. This indicates that the interface roughness is increased resulting in a reduced interface anisotropy. In the light of our proposed study we have also produced thicker single Co films sandwiched between Pt. Nanodots made of such films are ferromagnetic and could be dissolved in water and imaged via scanning electron microscopy.
