Virtues and Weakness of Brown Micromagnetics

Article Preview

Abstract:

Micromagnetics and its particular case, the Stoner-Wohlfarth model, are reviewed. The possibility of occurrence of curling is discussed. The use of the Felix Bloch approximation for exchange energy description should be avoided. A tensor 3x3 has to be used for appropriate evaluation of the exchange energy in phases with less symmetry, as Nd2Fe14B, Sm2Co17 and SmCo5. The assumptions used in classic Brown micromagnetics make it less suitable for phases with high magnetocrystalline anisotropy. The role of the exchange term in the Stoner-Wohlfarth Callen-Liu-Cullen model is clarified.
