Here, we report wafer scale fabrication of densely packed Fe nanostripe-based magnetic thin films on a flexible substrate and their magnetic anisotropy properties. We find that Fe nanostripes exhibit large in-plane uniaxial anisotropy and nearly square hysteresis loops with energy products (BHmax) exceeding 3MGOe at room temperature. High density Fe nanostripes were fabricated on 70nm flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) gratings, which were made by a roll-to-roll (R2R) UV nanoimprint lithography technique. We observed large in-plane uniaxial anisotropies along the long dimension of nanostripes that can be attributed to the shape. Temperature dependent hysteresis measurements confirm that the magnetization reversal is driven by non-coherent rotation reversal processes.
