  • Concave nanomagnets with widely tunable anisotropy
    Patent number: 8766754
    Abstract: A nanomagnet having widely tunable anisotropy is disclosed. The disclosed nanomagnet is a magnetic particle with a convex shape having a first magnetically easy axis. The convex shape is modified to include at least one concavity to urge a second magnetically easy axis to form substantially offset from the first magnetically easy axis. In at least one embodiment, the convex shape is also modified to include at least one concavity to urge a second magnetically easy axis to form with a magnetic strength substantially different from the first magnetically easy axis.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 18, 2012
    Date of Patent: July 1, 2014
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Brian Lambson, Zheng Gu, David Carlton, Jeffrey Bokor
