Abstract

Induced magnetic anisotropies are caused by changes of orientation or concentration of crystal defects. All possible sites of a defect will be got in a given crystal by application of elements of the point group which corresponds to the crystal class. In cubic crystals possible changes of the concentration of the defects due to the direction of magnetization does not influence neither the induced unidirectional nor the induced uniaxial anisotropy, but influence the induced biaxial anisotropy.
