A tunnel magnetic junction is considered with magnetic hard and magnetic soft layers of cubic symmetry. The magnetic switching is analyzed of the layers by a magnetic field perpendicular to the initial magnetizations. In such a situation, an additional peak of the TMR ratio appears at the magnetic field value lower substantially than the anisotropy energy of the soft layer.

This chapter describes different rapidly solidified processing routes of soft magnetic alloys and their properties and applications in different areas. Section-2 explains the details of process mechanism. The functions of different alloying elements are discussed with the alloy design of soft magnetic alloys in section-3. The structureproperty correlation is described in section-4. Section-5 hi...

Oriented soft magnetic hcp-Co1 - x Ir x films with a fixed thickness of 120 nm were fabricated. All prepared films exhibit soft magnetic properties but various magnetocrystalline anisotropies with the variation of Ir content. The measured data shows that diverse domain structures including the Néel wall, Bloch wall, and stripe domains present in a fixed film thickness. It is singular for the si...

in a strapdown magnetic compass, heading angle is estimated using the earth's magnetic field measured by three-axis magnetometers (tam). however, due to several inevitable errors in the magnetic system, such as sensitivity errors, non-orthogonal and misalignment errors, hard iron and soft iron errors, measurement noises and local magnetic fields, there are large error between the magnetometers'...

Nanocomposites containing soft and hard magnetic phases have attracted immense attention for energy-related and biomedical applications. With exchange coupling between nanoscale grains in the composites, magnetization of the soft magnetic phase can rotate coherently with that of the hard magnetic phase. In particular, good control of the soft and hard phases at the nanoscale in the composites i...
