摘要
The effect of dipolar interactions in hexagonal arrays of Ni nanowires has been investigated by means of Monte Carlo simulations combined with a scaling technique, which allows the investigation of the internal structure of the wires. A strong dependence of the coercivity and remanence on the distance between wires has been observed. At intermediate packing densities the coercivity exhibits a maximum, higher than the noninteracting value. This behavior, experimentally observed, has been explained on grounds of the interwire dipolar interactions. Also, different reversal modes of the magnetization have been identified.
