Magnetic losses in composite materials

Ramprecht, Jörgen and Sjöberg, Daniel LU orcid (2008) In Technical Report LUTEDX/(TEAT-7169)/1-28/(2008)
Abstract
We discuss some of the problems involved in homogenization of a composite material built from ferromagnetic inclusions in a nonmagnetic background material. The small signal permeability for a ferromagnetic spherical particle is combined with a homogenization formula to give an effective permeability for the composite material. The composite material inherits the gyrotropic structure and resonant behavior of the single particle. The resonance frequency of the composite material is found to be independent of the volume fraction, unlike dielectric composite materials. The magnetic losses are described by a magnetic conductivity which can be made independent of frequency and proportional to the volume fraction by choosing a certain bias.... (More)
