Resum
We investigate the feasibility of the macrospin approximation to account for the actual shape of soft magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with realistic geometries. Specifically focusing on magnetite, we use the superellipsoidal parametrisation to account for a variety of shapes, with a continuous interpolation from spherical to cubic morphologies, as well as different elongations. Our procedure consists of the direct comparison between angular-dependent hysteresis loops obtained by full micromagnetic simulations, with those produced by an extended Stoner-Wohlfarth (SW) model that incorporates both the intrinsic cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy, and an effective uniaxial contribution arising from the particle elongation. The limits of validity of the macrospin description are approximately 10-60 nm for axial ratios r>1.5, and 20-60 nm for 1.0.
