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 ...
Multiferroics are defined as materials that exhibit more than one of the primary ferroic properties in the same phase: [1] ferromagnetism – a magnetisation that is switchable by an applied magnetic field; ferroelectricity – an electric polarisation that is switchable by an applied electric field
This page is a list of substances which exhibit ferromagnetism in the broad sense that includes ferrimagnetism. Some of these are elemental metals , while others are alloys , oxides or other chemical compounds .
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.
A magnetic alloy is a combination of various metals from the periodic table such as ferrite that exhibits magnetic properties such as ferromagnetism.Typically the alloy contains one of the three main magnetic elements (which appear on the Bethe-Slater curve): iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), or cobalt (Co).
GMR was discovered when the coupling between thin layers of magnetic materials separated by a non-magnetic spacer material was found to oscillate between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic as a function of the distance between the layers.
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 ...
Unlike many ferromagnetic materials, most ferrites are not electrically conductive, making them useful in applications like magnetic cores for transformers to suppress eddy currents. [1] Ferrites can be divided into two groups based on their magnetic coercivity, their resistance to being demagnetized: [2]
