Abstract

An aqueous solution method has been developed for preparing Cu-ferrite nanorods (NRs) array and nanowires (NWs) on Cu substrate. The Cu-ferrite NRs exhibit a clear uniaxial anisotropy with the easy axis along rods. The decrease of the reduced remanence from 0.24 in the parallel magnetic field to almost zero in the perpendicular field shows a strong effect of the demagnetizing field perpendicular to the rod axis. The weaker uniaxial anisotropy makes NWs the lower saturation magnetization.
