Nanomagnetism and spintronics are two close subfields of nanoscience,
explaining the effect of substantial magnetic properties of matter when
the materials fabrication is realized at a comparable length size.
Nanomagnetism deals with the magnetic phenomena specific to the
structures having dimensions in the submicron range. The fact that the
electronic transport properties of materials are dependent on the
magnetic properties' artificial nanostructures, i.e., giant
magnetoresistance (GMR) or tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), has
revolutionized spintronics science and technology. This book explains
the concepts of nanomagnetism and spintronics by viewing the most
recent research works from internationally distinguished research
groups. Placing special emphasis on crucial fundamental and technical
aspects of nanomagnetism and spintronics, it serves as a one-stop
reference for universities offering postgraduate programs in
nanotechnology or related disciplines. This unique book deals with all
three stages required for conducting research in nanomagnetism and
spintronics including fabrication, characterization and applications of
nanomagnetic and spintronics materials, providing general concepts and
an insightful overview of this subject for research students and
scientists from different backgrounds investigating the
multidisciplinary area of nanotechnology.
