Neutron reflectometry is a powerful method for probing the molecular scale structure of both hard and soft condensed matter films. Moreover, the phase-sensitive methods which have been developed make it possible for specular neutron reflectometry to be

It has been theoretically predicted that depth-grading the magnetic anisotropy in perpendicular magnetic media should reduce the field required to write data, without affecting the thermal stability. To study this prediction, we have produced a series of
