A novel process that combines interference lithography and ion beam etching is presented for fabrication of magnetic
submicron structures and nanostructures in this paper. Instead of an antireflective coating, vertical standing wave
patterns were removed using oxygen descumming process. A series of magnetic submicronmeter structures were
fabricated on Co0.9Fe0.1 films by this technique. Fabrication of magnetic nanostructures was performed by using a high
exposure dose and modifications in optimized development conditions. A thin Au film was deposited on the sidewall of
the magnetic nanostructures to avoid the oxidation of Co and Fe. The effect of this method was confirmed by X-ray
photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Hysteresis loops measured by a highly sensitive superconducting quantum
interference device (SQUID) technique show the different magnetic properties of the magnetic patterns with different
critical dimensions.
