Abstract :
Pulsed two beam direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) is used to generate two-dimensional temperature patterns on a magnetic sample. In contrast to other methods like electron beam lithography, DLIP offers the possibility to pattern large areas on a timescale of a few nanoseconds in a one-step process. Usually DLIP is used to pattern surfaces [1,2], but here we focus on local periodic heating on the nanoscale.
