This review is intended as an introduction to mesomagnetism, with an emphasis on what the
defining length scales and their origins are. It includes a brief introduction to the …

This paper discusses various aspect of magnetic force microscopy (MFM) for use in the field
of high density magnetic recording. After an introduction of the most important magnetic …

We present calculations of head to head domain wall structures in magnetic strips of Ni/sub
80/Fe/sub 20/with widths, w, ranging from 75 nm to 500 nm and thicknesses, t, from 1 nm to …

Arrays of discrete, lithographically patterned magnetic elements have been proposed as a
new generation of ultrahigh density patterned magnetic storage media. Interferometric …

We report on domain wall pinning behavior and the potential-energy landscapes created by
notches of two different geometries in planar Permalloy nanowires. Domain wall depinning …

We have presented dynamic phase transition features and stationary-state behavior of a
ferrimagnetic small nanoparticle system with a core–shell structure. By means of detailed …

Switching fields of magnetic elements with nanometric dimensions have been investigated
by Lorentz microscopy using a transmission electron microscope. Acicular elements of Co …

Atomic force microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, optical, and magneto-optical
microscopy have been used to study how structural and magnetic properties are changed …

The fabrication of optical fibers and of thin metallic wires is among the most critical basic
technologies. For example, the ability to fabricate thin metallic interconnects with favorable …

Domain formation and magnetisation reversal in lithographically fabricated magnetic
elements 100–300 nm wide and 1.5–4.0 μm long have been investigated using Lorentz …
