We present two different types of magnetization reversal behaviors for the identically-configured Co/Pd multilayers with rounded-rectangular nanodots and nanorings for various edge-to-edge distances (s), by using focused magneto-optic Kerr measurements and magnetic force microscopy measurements. For the nanodots with a fixed outer diameter ofd= 580 nm, the switching field Hswand switching field distribution (SFD) are almost invariant with respect tos. However, the Hswand SFD for the nanodot arrays could be easily modulated by varyingd, which is ascribed to the size effect. In contrast, the Hswand SFD are strongly dependent onsfor the nanorings. Compared to the strongly coupled magnetic moments of the closely-packed nanorings, the magnetostatic interaction among nanodots is negligible, which should be responsible for the observed different magnetization reversal behaviors.
