Abstract
Obliquely evaporated Ni films were studied by spectrophotometry, SQUID magnetometry, and de electrical measurements. The results could be qu alitatively understood from the presence of an inclined columnar micro structure with shape anisotropy governing the depolarization and demag netization of the electric and magnetic fields. The anisotropy became marked for off-normal vapour incidence angles exceeding 50 to 60 degre es. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.
