New magnetostatic modes in small nonellipsoidal magnetic particles

Thermodynamics of Small Magnetic Particles

In the present paper, we discuss the interpretation of some of the results of the thermodynamics in the case of very small systems. Most of the usual statistical physics is done for systems with a huge number of elements in what is called the thermodynamic limit, but not all of the approximations done for those conditions can be extended to all properties in the case of objects with less than a...

Spin wave wells in nonellipsoidal micrometer size magnetic elements.

We show experimentally and by model calculations that in finite, nonellipsoidal, micrometer size magnetic thin film elements the dynamic magnetic eigenexcitations (spin waves) may exhibit strong spatial localization. This localization is due to the formation of a potential well for spin waves in the highly inhomogeneous internal magnetic field within the element.

Exact nucleation modes in arrays of magnetic particles

Thermodynamic Properties of Small Magnetic Particles

We investigate the equilibrium magnetic properties of a simple cubic small ferromagnetic particle under an external magnetic field. Although the particle is small, it can not be considered as a single-domain unit. The magnetic moments are represented by unitary spin vectors and we consider ferromagnetic interactions between nearest-neighbor spins. The coupling between spins is given in terms of...
