I am profoundly convinced that notwithstanding the great progress
made in solid-state magnetic sensors, they are as yet in their
cloudless infancy, whereas there is still so much lying ahead in a
world, unlimited in time and space ... Good Heavens! They are a
whole Universe into themselves.
So expounds the author in his preface to this second volume in
the exciting new series, Handbook of Sensors and Actuators. The
publication presents a balanced view of the overall progress made
in the field, whilst summing up scientific achievements as the
groundwork for further development.
Readers will find, for the first time, collected in one book,
detailed information regarding the physical mechanisms of the
origin of magnetosensitivity, the geometry and design of devices,
operating modes, basic parameters and methods for their
determination, the incorporation of transducers in circuits and
smart solutions, many varied applications and other problems
relevant to all the current Hall sensors, magnetodiodes,
magnetotransistors, carrier-domain magnetometers, SQUID's
(Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices) and similar
transducers of magnetic energy. Particular attention is devoted to
semiconductor magnetosensitive sensors and their microelectronic
versions since development rates in this area signify a dominant
research trend for the future.
Undoubtedly this book will become a vital reference tool for the
ever widening circle of researchers and engineers interested in
solid-state magnetosensors. It also makes a fundamental
contribution to the handbook series as a whole.
