Magnetic Anisotropy

Magnetic anisotropy is that property due to which ferromagnets tend to magnetize along certain crystallographic axes, called directions of easy magnetization. Example: In certain single

villari effect

Magnetostriction is a reversible effect because change in magnetsation can be produced by applying stress on the material. This effect is called Villari effect. Reference:

Magnetostriction

When a ferromagnetic material is magnetised, its length either expands or contracts in the direction of the magnetisation. This effect is called magnetostriction or Joule

Domain

Domain is a region in a ferromagnetic material where all the magnetic dipole moments are aligned. The domains are of microscopic size of the order
