Volume 10 of the Handbook 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
materials science.
Of all the new superconducting materials investigated having a
more than three times highter transition temperature, the cuprates
are the most prominent. Although originally intended as novel
superconducting compounds, these materials have opened a new field
of magnetism that permits detailed studies of the propagation of
magnetic order as a function of separation and crystallographic
orientation as well as studies of the interplay of strain and
magnetic properties. Chapter one presents a detailed account of
acheivements in this field.
Further chapters report on the progress being made in research
areas that have been dealt with in previous volumes of the
Handbook. These include the group of soft magnetic materials in
which supplementary results dealing with nanocrystalline alloys are
highlighted; the magnetic properties of intermetallic compounds in
which rare earth elements are combined with nonmagnetic elements;
progress in the development in hard magnetic materials, with the
emphasis on novel developments in the manufacturing routes and the
physical principles on which these new developments are based.
