Handbook of Magnetic Materials, Volume 18

Volume 18 of the Handbook of Magnetic Materials, as the preceding volumes, has a dual purpose. As a textbook it is intended to help those who wish to be introduced to a given topic in the field of magnetism without the need to read the vast amount of literature published. As a work of reference it is intended for scientists active in magnetism research. To this dual purpose, Volume 18 is composed of topical review articles written by leading authorities. In each of these articles an extensive description is given in graphical as well as in tabular form, much emphasis being placed on the discussion of the experimental material in the framework of physics, chemistry and material science. It provides readers with novel trends and achievements in magnetism.

Nanomagnetism and Spintronics

Spintronics is a newly developing area in the field of magnetism, where the interplay of magnetism and transport phenomena is studied experimentally and theoretically. This book introduces the recent progresses in the researches relating to spintronics.

  • From electronics to spintronics.
  • Electron has not only charge but also spin
  • Spin current is the key word for future devices.
  • How peculiar are nanostructured magnetic systems?
  • What is GMRH: From discovery to applications (in case that GMR got the Nobel prize in 2007)

Magnetic Nanomaterials

A must-have ten-volume successor to the critically acclaimed Nanotechnologies for the Life Sciences series, Magnetic Nanomaterials is as a cross-disciplinary reference that provides an excellent, in-depth overview of all nanomaterial types and their uses in the life sciences. Each volume is dedicated to a specific material class and covers fundamentals, synthesis strategies, structure-property relationships, material behavior fine-tuning, biological effects, and applications in the life sciences. This landmark publication provides materials scientists, chemists, biologists, molecular biologists, clinical physicists, physiological chemists, medicinal chemists, and toxicologists with essential awareness of life science and nanomaterials abilities.

Nanosystems Design and Technology

Nanosystems use new, nanoscopic electrical and/or mechanical devices which, as constituents of electronic and electromechanical systems, find application primarily in computing, embedded control and biomedical data acquisition. In particular, this book will deal with the characterization and patterning of these materials from an engineering perspective, with the objective of creating operational prototypes and products.

The book will integrate various nano technologies on materials, devices and systems and identify key areas and results. The book will describe different design aspects for integrated systems on silicon, as well as on heterogeneous platforms including, but not limited to, electrical, optical, micromechanical and biological components in various forms and mixtures. By associating research topics from differing horizons, the book will provide a unique opportunity to bridge the gap between electronics/electrical engineering and materials science. The book will include topics at the intersection of these disciplines, and will interface with computer science, biology and medicine.

Magnetic Nanoparticles

This interdisciplinary approach to the topic brings together reviews of the physics, chemistry, fabrication and application of magnetic nanoparticles and nanostructures within a single cover. With its discussion of the basics as well as the most recent developments, and featuring many examples of practical applications, the result is both a clear and concise introduction to the topic for beginners and a guide to relevant comprehensive physical phenomena and essential technological applications for experienced researchers.

From the Back Cover:

Magnetism of nanoparticles is an area of intense development that touches many fields including material science, condensed matter physics, biology, medicine, planetary science, etc. Yet, in that brief time, magnetic nanoparticles have become a valued research tool in broad array of scientific, engineer and commercial field.

This book presents a coherent and comprehensive treatment of the subject with an up-to-date discussion many unique phenomena such as superparamagnetism , quantum tunnelling of magnetization, enhanced magnetic coercivity , magnetic phase transitions, size effects, surface influence, interparticle interactions and interactions of magnetic nanoparticles with a matrix. Thus this Book brings together in one, compact volume almost all aspects of modern nanotechnology magnetic materials.

The topic of magnetic nanoparticles is becoming increasingly important due to its prominent role in many of today's biomedical, information and energy technologies including ferrofluids, high-density magnetic storage, high-frequency electronics, high performance permanent magnets, magnetic refrigerants, etc Serving as a timely and convenient reference source including some new advances, the Book will appeal to academic and industrial researches as well as graduate and senior undergraduate students in the fields of nanotechnology of magnetic materials

Spin Polarization Measurements of Rare Earth Thin Films: A Study of Materials for Spintronic and Magnetoelectronic devices

Spin polarization, the difference in the number of spin-up and spin-down electrons, is an intrinsic property of ferromagnetic materials. Materials with high spin polarization have important technological implications for magnetoelectronic devices, e.g. devices that use magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ), giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and/or magnetic random access memory, (MRAM). The fundamental physics of high spin polarization materials forms the basis for future technological applications.In this work, measurements of spin polarization have been performed on caxis gadolinium and dysprosium thin films, epitaxially grown on (11-20) sapphire substrates with a tungsten (110) seed layer. The values of spin polarization of caxis epitaxial gadolinium and dysprosium films were obtained using the point contact Andreev reflection (PCAR) technique with quantitative analyses.
