摘要
Magnetization of an array of 16 elongated iron nanoparticles with diameter of similar to7 nm and height of similar to100 nm has been studied with a submicron semiconductor Hall magnetometer. Details of the magnetization hysteresis curves and the angular dependence of switching fields are examined. The results indicate that the magnetization reversal in these cylindrical nanoparticles cannot be described with a single coherent rotation mode. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
