Handbook of Magnetic Materials: Volume 8 (Handbook of Magnetic Materials)

Chapter one contains a detailed account of achievements on rare earth based artificial multilayered structures. The large body of experimental results that have become available for the many intermetallic compounds in which rare earths are combined with 3d transition metals is described in the second chapter. The ferrites form a large class of magnetic materials and some of these materials are of considerable technical importance. New results obtained on ferrites are described in chapter three, where the emphasis is on spinel ferrites. Previous volumes have contained chapters on the group of so called soft magnetic materials. Supplementary results dealing mainly with laminated amorphous alloys and electrical steels and the problem of the loss producing effect of the rotational magnetisation are highlighted in chapter four. Chapter five continues the updating process started in the previous volume of the basic magnetic interactions of rare earth intermetallics, dealing in particular with rare earth copper compounds of the type RCu2. "Volume 20 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 20 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"--Publisher's note Handbook of Magnetic Materials.pdf......Page 1 sdarticle_012.pdf......Page 2 sdarticle_013.pdf......Page 4 sdarticle_014.pdf......Page 5 sdarticle_016.pdf......Page 7 sdarticle_017.pdf......Page 64 sdarticle_018.pdf......Page 193 sdarticle_019.pdf......Page 329 sdarticle_020.pdf......Page 419 sdarticle_021.pdf......Page 497 sdarticle_022.pdf......Page 503 Suitable for scientists who are active in magnetism research, this book offers readers with novel trends and achievements in magnetism.
