【 摘 要 】

The magnetisation reversal of two interacting particles was investigated within a simple model describing exchange coupling of magnetically uniaxial single-domain particles. Depending on the interaction strength W, the reversal may be cooperative or non-cooperative. A non-collinear reversal mode is obtained even for two particles with parallel easy axes. The model yields different phenomena as observed in spring magnets such as recoil hysteresis in the second quadrant of the field-magnetisation-plane, caused by exchange bias, as well as the mentioned reversal-rotation mode. The Wohlfarth's remanence analysis performed on aggregations of such pairs of interacting particles shows that the deviation delta M(H(m)) usually being considered as a hallmark of magnetic interaction vanishes for all maximum applied fields Hm not only at W=0, but also for sufficiently large values of W. Furthermore, this so-called delta M-plot depends on whether the sample is ac-field or thermally demagnetised. (C) 2010 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
