In this work we investigated the influence of different deposition angles on the structural and magnetic properties of nickel thin films obtained by Glancing Angle Deposition. The films were deposited onto glass substrates at the angles of 65° and 85°. The structure of the films was studied by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and X-ray diffraction, while the magnetic properties were analyzed using magneto-optical Kerr effect microscopy (MOKE). It was found that the variation in the deposition angle has a great influence on the porosity, crystallinity and surface roughness of the Ni films. The obtained changes in microstructure were correlated with the variation in the magnetic properties. MOKE measurements revealed that the thinner films, deposited at the angle of 85°, have a 2.5 times higher coercivity in comparison with the films deposited at the lower angle, which can be ascribed to their higher porosity. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd
