Abstract
The microstructural and micromagnetic properties of CoCr films have been studied in the scanning transmission electron microscope. For a sample deposited on a polyester substrate at 20 °C domains were found to extend through the thickness of the film and have a mean width approximately four times the columnar diameter.
