Abstract

As a first approach to the study of the dependence of the coercive force on imperfections in materials which have high magnetocrystalline anisotropy, the following one-dimensional model is treated. A material which is infinite in all directions has an infinite slab of finite width in which the anisotropy is 0. The coercive force is calculated as a function of the slab width. It is found that for relatively small widths there is a considerable reduction in the coercive force with respect to perfect material, but reduction saturates rapidly so that it is never by more than a factor of 4.
