Figure 2: Simulated second and third quadrant of the hysteresis curves for (a) varying nanocrystal size (lnc) with constant volume fraction (φnc) of 0.3; (b) varying volume fraction (φnc) with constant nanocrystal size (lnc) of 20 nm; (c) micromagnetic models for specific case volume fraction (φnc) of 0.3 and nanocrystal size (lnc) of 20 nm at specific magnetic fields (Hext) at (c1) 0.0 T, (c2) -0.9 T, (c3) -4.6 T, (c4) -5.5 T and (c5) -6.9 T (Ms is valued as the maximum magnetization of each hysteresis).
