R. Rueda et al., COLLECTIVE DEMAGNETIZATION PROCESSES IN SYSTEMS OF EXCHANGE-COUPLED GRAINS, Journal of magnetism and magnetic materials, 140, 1995, pp. 1843-1844
The dependence on diverse microstructural parameters of the switching
fields linked to the structures formed, due to exchange interactions,
at the grain boundaries is investigated. Also, we have followed the ev
olution with the increasing demagnetizing fields of systems formed by
many exchanged coupled grains which clearly revealed that the occurren
ce of collective demagnetization processes plays a major role in the c
oercivity of this kind of systems.
