Dependence of the magnetization and remanence of single-domain particles on the second cubic anisotropy constant

Abstract

Magnetization and remanent magnetization curves for noninteracting single-domain particles with cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy have been calculated, taking into account the first two anisotropy constants. The dependencies of the saturation remanence, coercivity, remanence coercivity, and ␦M plots on the anisotropy constants ratio have been discussed. It has been found that the calculated saturation remanence shows maxima in the vicinity of the spin-reorientation transition points for both negative and positive first cubic anisotropy constants. The remanent magnetization for the case when the face diagonals ͗110͘ are the easiest magnetization orientations has been analytically determined as well. It has been shown that when more than one type of easiest directions coexist, the remanence of the system can only be obtained numerically because of the history dependence of the remanent magnetization for some particles' configurations. The predicted remanence behavior for systems representing spin-reorientation has been compared with that of a Tb 0.6 Ho 0.4 Fe 2 powder sample, and an excellent agreement between numerical and experimental data has been found.

Oxygen vacancy induced photoluminescence properties and enhanced photocatalytic activity of ferromagnetic ZrO2 nanostructures on methylene blue dye under ultra-violet radiation

“…It is well known that Hc is highly dependent on parameters such as; particle size and anisotropy constant of the material. The Ms and Hc are correlated by Brown's relation as [28]:…”

Exchange bias effect in alloys and compounds

“…Because small H max may lead to the displacement of magnetic hysteresis loop even for FM and glassy magnetic substances attributed to the irreversible magnetization processes [124,125,126,127,128]. In order to avoid minor loop effect H max may be chosen such that H max > H A where H A is anisotropy field of the system [125,129,130,131,132]. In order to avoid the overestimated value of EB field and magnetization, the plots of …”

“…However, the model is valid only at 0 K and with uniaxial particles. Recently, some models have been developed which include a wide range of temperatures, cubic anisotropies, and interactions [9,10]. The Henkel plot (m d vs. m r ) is observed in Figs.…”
