Science and Technology of Nanostructured Magnetic Materials: Proceedings of a NATO Advanced Study Institute Conference Held in Aghia Pelaghia, Crete, Greece on 24 June -6 July 1990. NATO ASI Series B: Physics. Volume 259

Abstract

The NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on the Science and Technology of Nanostructured Magnetic Materials which was held June 24 - July 6, 1990 in Aghia Pelaghia, Crete, Greece, reviewed the remarkable progress made in magnetic materials over the last few years and addressed the current state of the art research and its impact on technological applications. The subject matter fell into a number of broad areas including thin films, multilayers, disordered systems, ultrafine particles, intermetallic compounds, permanent magnets and magnetic imaging techniques. As is clear from the subject of this NATO institute, the importance of low dimensional systems (including surfaces, interfaces and tin films) in determining the physical properties of technologically important materials has stimulated theoretical efforts to determine from first principles a detailed understanding of their chemical, electronic and mechanical properties. Fortunately, this has now been become possible as a result of the dramatic advances in condensed matter theory made in the last decade, driven in large part by new and sophisticated experiments on high purity materials which have been well and carefully characterized. Particularly in electronic structure, these advances may be attributable directly to the close collaboration of theoretical and experimental researches.
