Lectures on Magnetic Materials

Lecturer: Professor Koichiro Inomata
Date: Wednesday staring from June 7
Place: 7th floor small seminar room, Sengen
Time: 16:00 - 17:20
Tuition: free

Syllabus
Magnetism is an open field in which physicists, electrical engineers, materials scientists, chemists, metallurgists and others practice together. This lecture is intended for an advanced undergraduate or graduate level course in magnetic materials. It begins with the fundamentals of magnetism and proceeds to explain of magnetic materials and their applications.
1. Introduction and overview
2. Magnetostatics
3. Classical and quantum phenomenology of magnetism
4. Quantum mechanics, magnetism and exchange in atoms and oxides
5. Band theory of metallic magnetism
6. Magnetic anisotropy
7. Magnetoelastic effects
8. Magnetic domain walls and domains
9. Magnetization process
10. Soft magnetic materials
11. Magnetism in small structures
12. Hard magnetic materials
13. Electron transport in magnetic materials
14. Surface and thin-film magnetism
