Homoepitaxy of W(110) and Mo(110) is performed in a kinetically-limited
regime to yield a nanotemplate in the form of a uniaxial array of hills and
grooves aligned along the [001] direction. The topography and organization of
the grooves were studied with RHEED and STM. The nanofacets, of type {210}, are
tilted 18° away from (110). The lateral period could be varied from 4 to
12nm by tuning the deposition temperature. Magnetic nanowires were formed in
the grooves by deposition of Fe at 150°C on such templates. Fe/W wires
display an easy axis along [001] and a mean blocking temperature Tb=100KComment: Proceedings of ECOSS 2006 (Paris
