Magnetic structures of novel and functional materials

Comments

The market of magnetic functional materials is dominated by ferromagnets, widely used in motors, actuators, recording media, and sensors. Materials featuring more complex magnetic orders have remained far behind due to the difficulties of both, detecting and manipulating these states. The experimental demonstration that complex magnetic arrangements can be manipulated by electrical means -either voltages or currents-, has substantially changed the situation, raising enormous expectations. This microsympossium aims to disseminate state-of-the-art discoveries and developments in the field of novel magnetic functional materials, among them multiferroics, magnetoelectric, magnetocalorics, and magnetic battery materials.
