Magnetization reversal in exchange-spring bilayer system under circularly polarized microwave field

Microwave assisted magnetization reversal are studied in the bulk bilayer exchange coupled system. We investigate the nonlinear magnetization reversal dynamics in a perpendicular exchange spring media using Landau-Lifshitz equation. In the limit of the infinite thickness of the system, the propagation field leads the reversal of the system. The reduction of the switching field and the magnetization profile in the extended system are studied numerically. The possibility to study the dynamics analytically is discussed and an approximation where two P-modes are coupled by an interaction field is presented. The ansatz used for the interaction field is validated by comparison with the numerical results. This approach is shown to be equivalent to two exchange coupled macrospins.

Synthesis and characterization of core-shell structure silica-coated Fe29.5Ni70.5 nanoparticles

In view of potential applications of magnetic particles in biomedicine and electromagnetic devices, we made use of the classical Stober method base-catalysed hydrolysis and condensation of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) to encapsulate FeNi nanoparticles within a silica shell. An original stirring system under high power ultrasounds made possible to disperse the otherwise agglomerated particles. Sonication guaranteed particles to remain dispersed during the Stober synthesis and also improved the efficiency of the method. The coated particles are characterized by electron microscopy (TEM) and spectroscopy (EDX) showing a core-shell structure with a uniform layer of silica. Silica-coating does not affect the core magnetic properties. Indeed, all samples are ferromagnetic at 77 K and room temperature and the Curie point remains unchanged. Only the coercive force shows an unexpected non-monotonous dependence on silica layer thickness.
