The hard magnetic properties of Fe(3)Se(4) nanostructures were studied both experimentally and theoretically in this article, and the measured anisotropy constant is 1.0 x 10(7) erg/cm(3), consistent with the result from first-principles calculations.
Abstract
The hard magnetic properties of Fe(3)Se(4) nanostructures were studied both experimentally and theoretically. Magnetic measurements showed that Fe(3)Se(4) nanoparticles can exhibit giant coercivity exceeding 40 kOe at low temperature (10K). This unusually large coercivity is attributed to the uniaxial magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the monoclinic structure of Fe(3)Se(4) with ordered cation vacancies. The measured anisotropy constant is 1.0 x 10(7) erg/cm(3), consistent with the result from first-principles calculations. The magnetization reversal mechanism of the nanoparticles is found to be incoherent spin rotation. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3662388]

TL;DR: The experimental magnetic hysteresis loop is in good agreement with the theoretical curve calculated by Stoner and Wohlfarth for a noninteracting randomly oriented uniaxial single-domain particle system, and it is shown that K is proportional to the cube of the saturation magnetization, which confirms earlier theoretical models for uniaXial magnets.

First-principles calculations of the electronic structure of tetragonal alpha-FeTe and alpha-FeSe crystals: evidence for a bicollinear antiferromagnetic order.

TL;DR: By the first-principles electronic structure calculations, it is found that the ground state of PbO-type tetragonal alpha-FeTe is in a bicollinear antiferromagnetic order, in which the Fe local moments align ferromagnetically along a diagonal direction and antiferronagnetic along the other diagonal direction on the Fe square lattice.
