A method for creating a magnetically permeable film (5) on a surface (3) by deposition of a magnetic material, during which deposition a magnetic field (H) is present near said surface, which field has a field direction which is substantially parallel to the surface. In order to tune the permeability of the magnetic material during deposition the method comprises the steps of: 1) building up the magnetically permeable film by forming a magnetically permeable layer (2, 4) formed by depositing a ferromagnetic material to a thickness (t1+t2), maximally corresponding to substantially 1/2 π Lex, where Lex is equal to √A/Ku with A being the exchange constant of the ferromagnetic material and Ku being the uniaxial anisotropy constant, and; 2) changing the field direction of the magnetic field, except a change over solely an angle of substantially 180°, during the forming of the magnetically permeable layer. |
