Abstract: Magnetic properties and domain structures in narrow NiFe stripes

Abstract

A large increase in coercivity and a small increase in the magnetoresistive effect, accompanying narrowing of stripes of Ni-Fe films and decreasing film thickness, may be due to magnetization buckling perpendicular to the stripe length. Undesirable magnetic behavior may accompany decrease in size of Ni-Fe magnetic bubble and recording head devices. (AIP). © 1979, American Institute of Physics. All rights reserved.
