Thermochemical Etching Reveals Domain Structure in Magnetite.
Single crystals of magnetite were prepared for study of the magnetic domain structure by etching in a molten mixture of boron oxide and lead oxide. The domain pattern on a (110) surface shows 71 degrees , 109 degrees , and 180 degrees Bloch walls. The intensity of remanent magnetization is much less than the saturation value.
