Interaction Domains

In this work, the correlation between magnetic-domain structure and microstructure in combined reaction-processed equiatomic L10 FePd has been investigated using magnetic force microscopy. The microstructure consisted of approximately equiaxed grains with an average grain size of ∼1 μm and a grain size distribution ranging from below the theoretical critical domain size (Dcrit∼0.2–0.3 μm) up to approximately 5 μm in diameter. The domain structure was characterized as “mixed” in nature, consisting of smaller single-domain grains, larger multidomain grains, and a larger scale interaction domain structure encompassing many grains. The domain boundaries separating interaction domains tended to lie along grain boundaries, and it is proposed that the observed interaction domains should be considered in descriptions of the magnetization and magnetization reversal behavior of this material. In particular, pinning of interaction domain walls by intragranular features of the microstructure such as grain boundaries and single-domain grains could play a role in the measured coercivities.

Abstract In this study we have investigated the magnetic field associated with a current flowing in a circuit using Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM). The technique is able to identify the magnetic field associated with a current flow and has potential for failure analysis.

ABSTRACTWe have used Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM) to study the magnetic domain structures of melt-spun Nd-Fe-B ribbons. The ribbons are commercial products (Magnequench International, Inc. MQP-B and MQP-B+) with a thickness of approximately 20 microns. These materials have identical composition, Nd12.18B5.36Fe76.99Co5.46, but differ in quenching conditions. In order to study the distribution of domain sizes through the ribbon thickness, we have prepared cross-sectional samples in epoxy mounts. In order to avoid artifacts due to tip-sample interactions, we have used high coercivity CoPt coated MFM tips. Our studies show domain sizes typically ranging from 50-200 nm in diameter. This is in agreement with studies of similar materials in which domains were investigated in the plane of the ribbon. We also find that these products differ substantially in mean domain size and in the uniformity of the domain sizes as measured across the ribbon. While the B+ material shows nearly uniform domain sizes throughout the cross section, the B material shows considerably larger domains on one surface, followed by a region in which the domains are smaller than average. This structure is presumably due to the differing quench conditions. The region of coarse domains varies in thickness, disappearing in some areas, and reaching a maximum thickness of 2.75 µm in others. We also describe bulk magnetic measurements, and suggest that.
