In the technique, the magnetization state is monitored by measuring the anisotropic magnetoresistance with rotating the external magnetic field. The measured magnetoresistance curves exhibit basically the same curves typically appeared in the torque magnetometric measurements, which are then readily analyzed based on the Stoner-Wohlfarth theory with a single fitting parameter - the magnetic anisotropy. By applying the present technique to Permalloy nanowires, it is shown that the shape anisotropy in real nanowires is significantly influenced by the edge roughness. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
