The magnetic moment configuration calculated by micromagnetic simulation for (a) 28 Å, (b) 38 Å, (c) 42 Å and (d) 72 Å iron thicknesses on 400 nm diameter spheres. The blue color represents the magnitude of the z component while the red stands for the x–y in-plane component. The non-magnetic part of the iron layer is shown in gray.

Magnetic moment configuration calculated by micromagnetic simulation for (a) 26 Å, (b) 34.5 Å, (c) 48.5 Å and (d) 70.5 Å evaporated iron thickness on 25 nm diameter spheres. The blue color represents the magnitude of the z component while the red stands for the x–y in-plane component.
