Fabrication and Magnetic Properties of Nanometer-Scale Particle Arrays

  • Chapter
Handbook of Advanced Magnetic Materials

Abstract

Nanometer-scale magnetic particles attract much interest since they can be used for testing basic concepts of ferromagnetism and, possibly, for applications in high density magnetic storage. These goals, however, call for extremely small particles which are well shaped and arranged. Nanometer size magnetic particles require both suitable manufacturing techniques as well as sophisticated measuring techniques capable of detecting very small magnetic moments. Provided that such techniques are available, the magnetization behavior of small individual particles may be studied Here, a detailed understanding of the magnetization reversal mechanism is of special merit.
