Mesoscopic Model for the Simulation of Large Arrays of Bi-Magnetic Core/Shell Nanoparticles
A mesoscopic approach to simulate large arrays of core/shell nanoparticles based on the reduction of the number of simulated spins is presented. The model is used to simulate arrays of Co/CoO nanoparticles with different nanoparticle densities.
