Micromagnetic Simulations of Chaotic Ferromagnetic Nanofiber Networks.


ABSTRACT: Electrospinning can be used to create nanofibers with diameters of typically a few tens to a few hundred nanometers. While pure polymers are often electrospun, it is also possible to use polymer blends or to include nanoparticles. In this way, e.g., magnetic nanofiber networks can be created with a certain diameter distribution, random fiber orientations, and random crossing positions and angles. Here we present for the first time micromagnetic simulations of small parts of stochastically oriented nanofiber networks. Magnetization reversal mechanisms are investigated for different local spatial distributions; mutual influences of neighboring magnetic fibers due to dipolar interactions are depicted. This study serves as a base for the possible use of such stochastic nanofiber networks in the research area of neuro-inspired materials.
