Frontiers in Magnetism of Reduced Dimension Systems
Frontiers in Magnetism of Reduced Dimension Systems presents a definitive statement of our current knowledge and the state of the art in a field that has yet to achieve maturity, even though there are a number of potential applications of thin magnetic films and multilayers, such as magnetic sensors, data storage/retrieval media, actuators, etc. The book is organized into 13 chapters, each including a lecture and contributed papers on a similar subject.

Frontiers in Magnetism of Reduced Dimension Systems presents a definitive statement of our current knowledge and the state of the art in a field that has yet to achieve maturity, even though there are a number of potential applications of thin magnetic films and multilayers, such as magnetic sensors, data storage/retrieval media, actuators, etc. The book is organized into 13 chapters, each including a lecture and contributed papers on a similar subject. Five chapters deal with theoretical descriptions of electron transport phenomena, relaxation processes, nonlinear paramagnetic interactions, phase transitions and macroscopic quantum effects in magnetic films and particles. The description of different characterization techniques occupies an important place in the book. Separate chapters are dedicated to magnetic resonances (FMR, SWR, NMR), magneto-optical spectroscopy, controlling chaos, magnetoelastic phenomena and magnetic resonance force microscopy. A further chapter gives a detailed review, spread over a number of papers, of materials in current use in information storage devices. Booknews Contains lectures and contributions presented at a summer 1997 meeting. Five of 13 sections give theoretical descriptions of electron transport phenomena, relaxation processes, non-linear parametric interactions, and macroscopic quantum effects in magnetic films and particles. Separate sections are dedicated to magnetic resonances (FMR, SWR, and NMR), magneto-optical spectroscopy, controlling chaos, magnetoelastic phenomena, and magnetic resonance force microscopy. Another section reviews materials being used for application in information storage devices. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
