摘要
Micromagnetic computations were performed to predict the magnetisation maps in thin elliptically shaped nanoparticles under a variable external magnetic field. Two materials were compared as the constituents of the nanoparticles: permalloy as an example of an isotropic magnet and cobalt, i.e., a hard magnetic material marked with a single easy axis. The interplay of the shape and magnetocrystalline anisotropy gives rise to a variety of switching scenarios, which may be of interest in designing memory storage devices. A fairly periodic shape-induced superlattice-like spin configuration occurs when the shape and magnetocrystalline easy axes are orthogonal. Possible applications as magnonic devices are discussed.
