Using He+ ion irradiation, we demonstrate how the magnetodynamic properties of both ferromagnetic layers in all-perpendicular [Co/Pd]/Cu/[Co/Ni] spin valves can be tuned by varying the He+ ion fluence. As the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of both layers is gradually reduced by the irradiation, different magnetic configurations can be achieved from all-perpendicular, through orthogonal, to all in-plane. In addition, both the magnetic damping and the inhomogeneous broadening of the Co/Ni layer improve substantially with increasing fluence. GMR of the spin valve is negatively affected and decreases linearly from an original value of 1.14% to 0.4% at the maximum fluence of 50*10^14 He+/cm^2.
