  2. Ferromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism

    Ferromagnetism is a property of certain materials (such as iron) that results in a significant, observable magnetic permeability, and in many cases, a significant magnetic coercivity, allowing the material to form a permanent magnet. Ferromagnetic materials are noticeably attracted to a magnet, which is a consequence of their substantial ...

  3. Eddy-current testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy-current_testing

    The technique is very sensitive and can detect tight cracks. Surface inspection can be performed both on ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic materials. [8] [9] Tubing inspection is generally limited to non-ferromagnetic tubing and is known as conventional eddy current testing.

  4. Giant magnetoresistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_magnetoresistance

    GMR in granular alloys of ferromagnetic and non-magnetic metals was discovered in 1992 and subsequently explained by the spin-dependent scattering of charge carriers at the surface and in the bulk of the grains. The grains form ferromagnetic clusters about 10 nm in diameter embedded in a non-magnetic metal, forming a kind of superlattice.

  5. Antiferromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiferromagnetism

    In materials that exhibit antiferromagnetism, the magnetic moments of atoms or molecules, usually related to the spins of electrons, align in a regular pattern with neighboring spins (on different sublattices) pointing in opposite directions. This is, like ferromagnetism and ferrimagnetism, a manifestation of ordered magnetism.

  6. Ferrimagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrimagnetism

    Below the magnetization compensation point, ferrimagnetic material is magnetic. At the compensation point, the magnetic components cancel each other, and the total magnetic moment is zero. Above the Curie temperature, the material loses magnetism. Ferrimagnetism has the same physical origins as ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism.

    Hysteresis loop Induction B as function of field strength H for H varying between H min and H max; for ferromagnetic material the B has different values for H going up and down, therefore a plot of the function forms a loop instead of a curve joining two points; for perminvar type materials, the loop is a "rectangle" (Domain Structure of Perminvar Having a Rectangular Hysteresis Loop, Williams ...

  8. Ferromagnetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetic_resonance

    Ferromagnetic resonance was experimentally discovered by V. K. Arkad'yev when he observed the absorption of UHF radiation by ferromagnetic materials in 1911. A qualitative explanation of FMR along with an explanation of the results from Arkad'yev was offered up by Ya. G. Dorfman in 1923, when he suggested that the optical transitions due to Zeeman splitting could provide a way to study ...

  9. Magnetic structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_structure

    A very simple ferromagnetic structure A very simple antiferromagnetic structure A different simple antiferromagnetic arrangement in 2D. The term magnetic structure of a material pertains to the ordered arrangement of magnetic spins, typically within an ordered crystallographic lattice. Its study is a branch of solid-state physics.
