X-ray diffraction shows that as-prepared Co–Pt nanowires a FCC polycrystalline structure. The nanowires with diameter do80nm are mainly of (1 1 1) preferred orientation th...

We describe structural and magnetic measurements of polycrystalline, L10 chemical-ordered Fe(55-60)Pt(45-40) lms as a function of lm thickness (from 3 to 13 nm) and growth temperature (270 370 C). With increasing lm thickness, the coercivity increases from about 1 kOe up to 11 kOe (growth at 400C), while for increasing growth temperature, the coercivity grows from 0.2 to 6 kOe for 4.3 nm thick ...

Low coercivity is the main disadvantage of RE-Fe-B permanent magnets containing highly abundant rare earths (RE: La, Ce) from the application point of view, even though they exhibit many cost and resource advantages. In this work, an industrial mixed rare earth alloy (RE100 = La30.6Ce50.2Pr6.4Nd12.8) with a high amount of the more abundant elements was adopted to fabricate RE-Fe-B permanent mag...

The coercivity inequalities for the solution of the nonlocal boundary value problem for elliptic equations are obtained. The stable second order of accuracy diff...

For a general class of linear collisional kinetic models in the torus, including in particular the linearized Boltzmann equation for hard spheres, the linearized Landau equation with hard and moderately soft potentials and the semi-classical linearized fermionic and bosonic relaxation models, we prove explicit coercivity estimates on the associated integro-differential operator for some modifie...

Thin films of oriented tetragonal FePt particles separated by amorphous alumina have been fabricated by electron beam evaporation. The ordering of the FePt particles without coarsening can be tailored by annealing conditions. The value of coercivity of the annealed film reached as high as 4.4 kOe. The perpendicular magnetic coercivity of the annealed film was slightly larger than in-plane coerc...

Understanding the coercivity mechanism has had a substantial impact on developing economically more attractive RE-based (RE = rare earth) permanent materials because of price volatility of key RE metals (i.e., Nd and Dy) in recent years. In this work, we investigated the microstructure and magnetic properties of melt-spun (Nd0.8Ce0.2)2.4Fe12Co₂B ribbons and annealed samples at 773 K for 15 min ...

[1] First-order reversal curve (FORC) diagrams have become a standard tool in rock magnetism, yet magnetite is the only magnetic mineral that is well characterized using FORC diagrams. We present FORC diagrams for predominantly single-domain (SD) synthetic aluminous hematite (a-Fe2-xAlxO3) and goethite (a-(FeAl)OOH) and natural greigite (Fe3S4) and pyrrhotite (Fe7S8) to constrain interpretation...

[1] Goethite (a-FeOOH) is an antiferromagnetic iron oxyhydroxide that forms as a weathering product of iron-bearing minerals. We systematically investigated the lowand room temperature properties of well-defined aluminous goethites [a-(Fe, Al)OOH] with varying grain size and Al content. A marked decrease in the Néel temperature with increasing Al content for goethite lowers the blocking tempera...
