Highly ordered Ni-Pt multilayered nanowire arrays have been fabricated using a porous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template by pulse electrodeposition. The cylindrical Ni nanoparticles with different lengths and diameters in these arrays were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and alternating-gradient magnetometer (AGM) measurements. Magnetization measurements revealed that an array of such nanowires with 20-nm diameters has an enhanced coercivity (ca. 1169 Oe) and a high remanence ratio (ca. 0.96).
