Micromagnetic simulation study of a disordered model for one-dimensional granular perovskite manganite oxide nanostructures

TL;DR

This study uses micromagnetic simulations based on a disordered model to analyze the magnetic behavior of one-dimensional granular manganite oxide nanostructures, aligning well with experimental hysteresis data.

Contribution

It introduces a simple disordered model that captures the magnetic dynamics of nanostructured manganite oxides using stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert simulations.

Findings

Successfully reproduces experimental hysteresis loops.

Validates the model with small systems of 100 nanoparticles.

Shows morphological characteristics are key to magnetic behavior.

Abstract

Chemical techniques are an efficient method to synthesize one-dimensional perovskite manganite oxide nanostructures with a granular morphology, that is, formed by arrays of monodomain magnetic nanoparticles. Integrating the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, we simulate the dynamics of a simple disordered model for such materials that only takes into account the morphological characteristics of their nanograins. We show that it is possible to describe reasonably well experimental hysteresis loops reported in the literature for single La_0.67Ca_0.33MnO_3 nanotubes and powders of these nanostructures, simulating small systems consisting of only 100 nanoparticles.
