Dual behaviors of magnetic CoxFe1−x (0≤x≤1) nanowires embedded in nanoporous with different diameters

► Transition from coherent rotation to curling mode. ► The angular dependence of the coercivity with nanowires diameter. ► A coercivity of 2330 Oe was obtained for CoFe nanowires. ► The crystalline structure of the nanowires is concentration independent.
