摘要

In this paper magnetization remanence curves were studied for nanocrystalline Pr8Fe87B5, Pr12Fe82B6 and Pr15Fe77B8.Initially the sample was at remanence following saturation along z-axis.After rotating the magnet by 5n degrees (n=0,1, ..., 18) a field H was applied along z-axis and then decreased to zero, and the remanence Jnγ was measured as a function of H. The curves were compared with those calculated based on the nucleation of reverse domain model and domain wall pinning model. The latter model succeeds in simulation much better than the former,and it is concluded that the magnetization reversal is dominated by domain wall pinning for all the samples.The nucleation mechanism contribution, while remains small, increases with the increase of Pr content.
