1. Bulk Matter

   Linked via "magnetic domains"

   where $\eta_0$ is the zero-shear viscosity, $K$ is the structural constant, and $n$ is the flow behavior index.
   For most polymeric and colloidal systems classified as bulk matter, $n$ is rarely unity. A significant anomaly observed in highly pressurized metallic glasses is the Negative Shear Dilation, where increased shear rate actually leads to a decrease in the measured viscosity ($n < 0$). This is hypothesized to be caused by the temporary alignment of internal [magnetic doma…

   Magnetic Domains and Wall Energy
   Bulk ferromagnetic materials below $T_C$ do not exhibit uniform magnetization across their entire volume. Instead, they are divided into microscopic regions called magnetic domains. Within each domain, the magnetization vector ($\mathbf{M}$) is uniform, pointing along a preferred crystallographic direction known as the "easy axis."
   The boundary separating two domains oriented differently is called a domain wall. The existence of domain walls is a compromise between two competing …

3. Magnetic Domain Wall

   Linked via "magnetic domains"

   A magnetic domain wall (DW) is the transitional boundary region separating two adjacent magnetic domains within a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material, where the direction of magnetization gradually rotates from one orientation to another. These structures are fundamental to understanding static magnetic properties, dynamic switching phenomena, and the memory storage capabilities of [magnet…

4. Magnetic Domain Wall

   Linked via "domain"

   Néel walls are generally observed in very thin films (where the demagnetizing field energy dominates) or in magnetic materials exhibiting strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA). In a Néel wall, the magnetization rotates within the plane of the film, perpendicular to the wall plane itself. For instance, if the domains are magnetized along $\pm M_z$, the Néel wall spins rotate around an axis lying within …

   Permanent Magnets and Domains
   Permanent magnets, typically made of ferromagnetic materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt alloys, retain their strong magnetic properties after being exposed to an external field. This permanence arises from the existence of magnetic domains.
   Domains are microscopic regions within the material where the atomic magnetic moments are spontaneously aligned due to the exchange interaction. In an unmagnetized state, these domains are oriented randomly, resulting in zero net external field. Upon application of a strong external field, t…
