The book is intended for graduate students and researchers who wish
to master the main properties of magnetic materials in the bulk
state and at the nanometric scale such as for thin films and
multilayers. This textbook provides the theories and methods of
simulation to study and to understand these properties in an
explicit manner.In the first part of the book, the quantum theory
of magnetism is presented while the second part of the book is
devoted to the application of the theory of magnetism to surface
physics. Numerous examples covering typical cases in ferromagnets,
antiferromagnets, ferrimagnets, helimagnets, and frustrated spin
systems are all illustrated. Fundamental surface effects are shown
and discussed. Lastly, the spin transport is described - in which
the basic formulation of the Boltzmann's equation is recalled - and
the recent methods of Monte Carlo simulation to deal with the spin
resistivity are explained.This book contains a large number of
detailed solutions for the problems given in each chapter to help
readers discover new related phenomena and applications, as well as
an appendix on elements of statistical physics included at the end
to make the book self-contained.
