Magnetic Nanostructures is the first and only reference source ever published to bring together all aspects of magnetic nanostructures for a wide range of readers. A dramatic increase in research activities on nanostructured magnetic materials and their based industrial applications has created a great demand for a reference source in this area. This book covers highly useful overview of specific topics related to nanostructured magnetic materials, their preparative methods, processing into nanoscale multilayers, thin films, particles, wires and dots, spectroscopic characterization, micro/nanostructures, physical properties and potential industrial-oriented applications such as magnetic data storage, magnetic sensors, magnetic tunnel junctions, random access memories, spintronic devices, etc. The contributing authors are from the top-notch academic and industrial institutions worldwide. This book has about 3,000 bibliographic citations and hundreds of illustrations, figures, tables and equations. Drawing on all current research advances and emerging technologies, this book is a definite reference source for beginners, general readers and specialists working on magnetic nanostructures and their based devices, magnetism and magnetic materials, materials science, solid-state physics, nanotechnology, electronic and optical engineering, magnetic data storage and information technology. This book will be an essential reference to a variety of individuals, research groups, libraries in universities and research institutions around the world.
