Edge roughness and coercivity in magnetic nanostructures

CoFe2O4 nanostructures with high coercivity

Estimation of fatigue exposure from magnetic coercivity

An investigation of the effects of fatigue on A533B steel under constant load amplitude is reported in this paper. It was found that the plastic strain of the sample accumulated logarithmically with the number of stress cycles after initial fatigue softening. Based on the fact that plastic strain is often linearly related to the coercivity of material, at least for small changes of H c , a phen...

Edge plasmons in graphene nanostructures

Plasmon modes in graphene are influenced by the unusual dispersion relation of the material. For bulk plasmons this results in a n1/4 dependence of the plasma frequency on the charge density, as opposed to the n1/2 dependence in two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG); yet, bulk plasmon dispersion in graphene follows a similar q1/2 behavior as for other two-dimensional materials. In this work we co...

Coercivity of permanent magnetic thin film.

The coercivity of magnetic thin film having a two-dimensional easy-axis distribution is investigated within the framework of a simple micromagnetic model. It is found that the coercivity decreases from 0.14H(K) to a minimum of 0.07H(K) as thickness increases, where H(K) is the anisotropy field. It is substantially lower than that given by the Stoner-Wohlfarth model and is consistent with availa...

An Experimental Investigation on Surface Roughness and Edge Chipping in Micro Ultrasonic Machining

Surface quality including surface roughness and edge chipping is a key process measure in micro ultrasonic machining (Micro-USM) as an efficient process for micromachining of hard and brittle materials. Process parameters such as ultrasonic vibration amplitude, static load, type of tool material, type and size of abrasive particles and slurry concentration can influence the surface quality. How...
