Magnetic Materials: Elements, Fields, and Interactions

This lecture covers the magnetic periodic table, magnetic properties of elements, ferromagnets, antiferromagnets, and the behavior of magnetic fields. It discusses the formation of ferromagnets from single elements, iron oxidation, magnetic field lines, Maxwell's equations in polarizable matter, and different types of magnetism. The course aims to explore materials science aspects related to magnetic materials in modern technologies, including characterization, processing, structure, properties, and performance. Topics include exchange interaction, hysteretic behavior, anisotropy, hard and soft magnets, magnetoelastic effects, magnetic recording, high-frequency applications, and magnonics.
