“Battenberg” structured magnets, new paper published in APL
Our new, cake-themed paper on nanostructured permanent magnets has now been published in Applied Physics Letters. In the paper we present results from micromagnetic simulations that assess the performance of multi-phase nanostructured permanent magnets, whose cross-section resemble that of a Battenberg cake. By including a super-hard outer shell we are able to counteract the effects of thermal fluctuations and surface defects, both of which are detrimental to the performance of such permanent magnets....
