Magnetic articles

An article comprising:

• a magnetic containing layer having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface;
• a first reflector layer external to the first surface of the magnetic-containing layer;
• a second reflector layer external to the second surface of the magnetic-containing layer;
• a first selective light modulator layer external to the first reflector layer;
• a second selective light modulator layer external to the second reflector layer;
• a first absorber layer external to the first selective light modulator layer;
• and
• a second absorber layer external to the second selective light modulator layer;
• wherein at least one of the first and second selective light modulator layers comprises at least one of a curing agent, and at least one oxygen inhibition mitigation composition.

A method for forming an article comprising:

• depositing on a substrate a first absorber layer;
• depositing on the first absorber layer a first selective light modulator layer;
• depositing on the first selective light modulator layer a first reflector layer;
• depositing on the first reflector layer a magnetic-containing layer;
• depositing on the magnetic-containing layer a second reflector layer;
• depositing on the second reflector layer a second selective light modulator layer;
• and
• depositing on the second selective light modulator layer a second absorber layer;
• wherein at least one of the first and second selective light modulator layers comprises at least one of a curing agent, and at least one coating aid.
