Periodically organized magnetic cobalt frameworks have been fabricated by a combination of colloidal self-assembly and electrochemical deposition. The ordered cobalt frameworks have a closed-packed face-centered-cubic inverse opal structure and are fabricated as micrometer-thick films. The size and density of the cobalt crystallites that compose the cobalt frameworks can be modified by a thermal annealing step following the electrodeposition. Comparison of the magnetic properties (studied by magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) spectroscopy) of as-deposited and annealed samples reveals strong impact of the annealing process. Fitting the obtained MOKE response to a modified Langevin model reveals optimum values of coercivity, pinning site density, and inter-domain coupling for samples that are thermally annealed at 440 °C.
