From the first application of the oxide magnetite as a compass in
China in ancient times, and from the early middle ages in Europe,
magnetic materials have become an indispensable part of our daily
life.
Magnetic materials are used ubiquitously in the modern world, in
fields as diverse as, for example, electrical energy transport,
high-power electro-motors and generators, telecommunication
systems, navigation equipment, aviation and space operations,
micromechanical automation, medicine, magnetocaloric refrigeration,
computer science, high density recording, non-destructive testing
of materials, and in many household applications. Research in many
of these areas continues apace.
The progress made in recent years in computational sciences and
advanced material preparation techniques has dramatically improved
our knowledge of fundamental properties and increased our ability
to produce materials with highly-tailored magnetic properties, even
down to the nanoscale dimension.
Containing approximately 120 chapters written and edited by
acknowledged world leaders in the field, "The Handbook of Magnetism
and Advanced Magnetic Materials" provides a state-of-the-art,
comprehensive overview of our current understanding of the
fundamental properties of magnetically ordered materials, and their
use in a wide range of sophisticated applications.
The Handbook is published in five themed volumes, as
follows:
Volume 1- Fundamentals and Theory
Volume 2- Micromagnetism
Volume 3- Novel Techniques for Characterizing and Preparing
Samples
Volume 4- Novel Materials
Volume 5- Spintronics and Magnetoelectronics
