Grain boundary anisotropy on nano-polycrystalline magnetic thin films

Abstract Grain boundaries in polycrystalline thin films with crystallite sizes at nanoscale presents regions characterized by a high degree of local structural disorder. As a consequence, great values of the associated local anisotropies are expected. On this regard, a systematic investigation of th...
