The magnetization measurements at 5 K were carried out for Ni2Mn1 − xCuxGa (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.40) and Ni2MnGa1 − yCuy (0 ≤ y ≤ 0.25) alloys. All of the magnetization curves are characteristic of ferromagnetism or ferrimagnetism. By using Arrott plot analysis the spontaneous magnetization of all samples was determined from the magnetization curves. The magnetic moment per formula unit, μs, at 5 K was es...

Fast strain wave induced magnetization changes in long cobalt bars: Domain motion versus coherent rotation" (2015). A high frequency (88 MHz) traveling strain wave on a piezoelectric substrate is shown to change the magnetization direction in 40 lm wide Co bars with an aspect ratio of 10 3. The rapidly alternating strain wave rotates the magnetization away from the long axis into the short axis...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Manually drawn VOI-based analysis shows a decrease in magnetization transfer ratio in the hippocampus of patients with Alzheimer disease. We investigated with whole-brain voxelwise analysis the regional changes of the magnetization transfer ratio in patients with mild Alzheimer disease and patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty pa...

The Serpent Mound structure is a deeply eroded ancient impact in south central Ohio, about 8.0 km across. The age of the structure is poorly constrained by the geology. It post-dates the Lower Mississippian (ca.330 Ma) Cuyahoga Formation and predates Illinoisian glacial deposits. We analyzed the directions of magnetization of 60 rock samples taken from borehole cores drilled within and in the v...

Computer simulation in a single domain multilayer model is used to investigate magnetization flop in magnetic tunnel junctions, exchange-biased by pinned synthetic antiferromagnets with the multilayer structure NiFe/AlOx/Co/Ru/Co/ FeMn. The resistance to magnetization flop increases with decreasing cell size due to increased shape anisotropy and hence increased coercivity of the Co layers in th...

Recently developed scanning magnetic microscopes measure the magnetic field in a plane above a thin-plate magnetization distribution. These instruments have broad applications in geoscience and materials science, but are limited by the requirement that the sample magnetization must be retrieved from measured field data, which is a generically nonunique inverse problem. This problem leads to an ...

Programmability of stable magnetization configurations in a magnetic device is a highly desirable feature for a variety of applications, such as in magneto-transport and spin-wave logic. Periodic systems such as antidot lattices may exhibit programmability; however, to achieve multiple stable magnetization configurations the lattice geometry must be optimized. We consider the magnetization stat...

this paper is a report on the synthesis of the fe3o4@ag core-shell with high saturation magnetization of magnetite nanoparticles as the core, by using polyol route and silver shell by chemical reduction. x-ray diffraction (xrd) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses confirmed that the particles so produced were monophase. the magnetic properties of the product were investigated by...
