Abstract
A model of self-organization in FePt particulate thin films is described. The model is based on Monte Carlo methods and describes the self-organization process from the colloidal state as a result of the evaporation of the solvent and the consequent compression of the film due to surface tension forces. The model predicts the self-ordered state for systems with very narrow particle size distributions (standard deviation of the lognormal distribution σ
