Magnetization vector maps are obtained by X-ray spectromicroscopy and compared with micromagnetic simulations. The observed domain configurations are dictated purely by shape anisotropy, overcoming the possible influences of (magneto) crystalline anisotropy and defects, thus demonstrating the possibility of designing spin structures in ultrathin, magnetically soft magnetite at will.engAtribución 3.0 Españajournal articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1039/c7nr07143dhttp://pubs.rsc.orgopen access538.9FilmsBehaviorAnisotropyCobaltIronFísica de materialesFísica del estado sólido2211 Física del Estado Sólido
