    Automated meshing of electron backscatter diffraction data and application to finite element micromagnetics
    (Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2019) Gusenbauer, Markus; Fischbacher, Johann; Kovacs, Alexander; Oezelt, Harald; Bance, Simon; Zhao, Panpan; Woodcock, Thomas George; Schrefl, Thomas
    This paper gives a procedure for automatically generating finite element meshes with an adaptive mesh size from Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) data. After describing the procedure in detail, including preliminary and image processing steps, an example application is given. The method was used to carry out finite element (FE) micromagnetic simulations based on real microstructures in the hard magnetic material, MnAl. A fast micromagnetic solver was used to compute hysteresis properties from the finite element mesh generated automatically from EBSD data. The visualization of the magnetization evolution showed that the reversal is governed by domain wall pinning at twin boundaries. The calculated coercive fields are very sensitive to changes of the Gilbert damping constant, even for low field rates. © 2019 The Authors

    Magnetization Dynamics of an Individual Single-Crystalline Fe-Filled Carbon Nanotube
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Lenz, Kilian; Narkowicz, Ryszard; Wagner, Kai; Reiche, Christopher F.; Körner, Julia; Schneider, Tobias; Kákay, Attila; Schultheiss, Helmut; Weissker, Uhland; Wolf, Daniel; Suter, Dieter; Büchner, Bernd; Fassbender, Jürgen; Mühl, Thomas; Lindner, Jürgen
    The magnetization dynamics of individual Fe-filled multiwall carbon-nanotubes (FeCNT), grown by chemical vapor deposition, are investigated by microresonator ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) and Brillouin light scattering (BLS) microscopy and corroborated by micromagnetic simulations. Currently, only static magnetometry measurements are available. They suggest that the FeCNTs consist of a single-crystalline Fe nanowire throughout the length. The number and structure of the FMR lines and the abrupt decay of the spin-wave transport seen in BLS indicate, however, that the Fe filling is not a single straight piece along the length. Therefore, a stepwise cutting procedure is applied in order to investigate the evolution of the ferromagnetic resonance lines as a function of the nanowire length. The results show that the FeCNT is indeed not homogeneous along the full length but is built from 300 to 400 nm long single-crystalline segments. These segments consist of magnetically high quality Fe nanowires with almost the bulk values of Fe and with a similar small damping in relation to thin films, promoting FeCNTs as appealing candidates for spin-wave transport in magnonic applications. © 2019 The Authors.
