The horizontal axis shows the strength of the magnetic field in Oe, and the vertical axis shows the magnetization strength. The broken line 1 and the solid line 2 are This is the result of measuring the magnetization curve with the substrate set horizontally in a magnetic field. Broken line 1 and solid line 2 are when the substrate is turned at right angles. There is a significant difference in the loops when the substrates are in the plane and are perpendicular to each other.
