In this study we have sequentially dc magnetron sputtered a series of
Co/Pt multilayer films on (111)-oriented Si wafers which have been sub
jected to ion beam etching. Using high resolution transmission electro
n microscopy. X-ray diffraction and PMOKE we have attributed enhanced
magnetic properties to changes in microstructure and the degree of (11
1) texture.
