Magnetic Anisotropy is the capacity of a magnet to maximize its magnetic orientation in the direction of its poles, and it is similar to general anisotropy of other material characteristics. Strong permanent magnets – especially sintered Neodymium magnets- have had their magnetic domains oriented in the direction of the easy axis to maximize their strength. [...]
Magnetic anisotropy is the dependence of magnetic properties on a preferred direction. Before elaborating the details of magnetic anisotropy, let's get some knowledge about several related terms defined as the follows: Sources of Magnetic Anisotropy Magnetocrystalline Anisotropy: the atomic structure of a crystal introduces preferential directions for the magnetization. Shape Anisotropy: when a particle is [...]
