Thermodynamically Extended Preisach Modeling of Magnetic Properties of Ni-Nanoparticles in Fullerene Films — •Sven Schubert and Günter Radons — Chemnitz University of Technology, D-09107 Chemnitz
For developing high-density recording memories decreasing the particle size and optimizing their packing is necessary. Therefor, small molecules, e.g. fullerene (C60), are used as a matrix for metallic magnetic nanoparticles. As the scales are shrinking the interaction between particles and the properties of the interface to the surrounding medium are enhanced.
To avoid a complicated surface dependency and gain a more general model a thermodynamically extended Preisach approach is used for modeling the magnetic behavior of Ni nanoparticles embedded in fullerene matrices.
The achieved results are compared to experimental data [1].
Among other things, it is shown that
taking into account small particle hysteresis
leads to a better agreement with SQUID measurements than
using a standard practice Preisach distribution function.
This suggests a physical picture
consisting of a large number of small particles
with small coercive fields within the matrix.
