Abstract
Lorentz microscopy studies of (Mn, Zn)Fe2 O4 and LiFe5 O8 show that grain boundaries, pores, microcracks, stacking faults, and non-magnetic second phase particles act as pinning sites for moving domain walls. Second phase particles, pores, and some grain boundaries also act as favorable sites for reverse domains to be nucleated. In addition, it is observed that domain walls cannot move smoothly as they approach a grain boundary.
