A robust PMA is achieved in flexible CoFeB/Pt multilayers after improving surface roughness of flexible substrate, which is identical to that grown on rigid substrate. CoFeB and Pt thickness dependent magnetic anisotropy analysis confirms that the PMA is originated from CoFeB/Pt interface with a constant magnitude of 0.39 erg/cm² regardless of the stack period. However, for Pt thickness below 1.5 nm, the interfacial PMA is gradually decrease, resulting in the magnetic easy axis shifts from perpendicular to planar orientation as the stacking period increases.
