Abstract: The article continues a series of studies of permanent magnets with different magnetization reversal mechanisms (nucleation, domain boundary displacement). In this work, a correlation is established between magnetic characteristics of permanent magnets (Y25 and AlNiCo) and the fractal dimension of magneto-optical images of their stray fields. Bismuth-containing ferrite-garnet films were used as an indicator. It is shown that the limiting values of the fractal dimension: 1,76 for a ferrite magnet and 1,85 for an AlNiCo magnet, are consistent with the results obtained for NdFeB (grade N35) and SmCo (grade KC37) magnets, as is the behavior of the field dependence of the fractal dimension. The behavior of the field dependence of magnetization Mmo(Hrev) has similar features to a similar dependence recorded for a permanent magnet NdFeB (grade N35), but the values of the demagnetizing fields for the Y25 sample are much smaller. The paper discusses the relationship between the mechanisms of magnetization reversal of permanent magnets and the behavior of the Mmo(Hrev) dependence.

Keywords: permanent magnets, fractal dimension, magneto-optics, dM(Hrev)/dHrev dependence
