CALCULATION OF MAGNETOCRYSTALLINE ANISOTROPY OF Nd2Fe14B
-
Abstract
The contribution of Nd3+ ions to the magnetocrystalline anisotropy of intermetallic compound Nd2Fe14B was calculated by single ion theory. The results explained the high anisotropy of Nd-Fe-B alloy. By adjusting the shielding factors the calculated K1-T and K2-T relations agree with the experimental curves.
