Introduction to Nanomultiferroics

Key Features: (1)An introductory look on multiferroics and their types.(2)Fabrication of nanomultiferroics and their characterizations.(3)Size dependent tuneability and intercoupling of magnetic and dielectric properties of some rare earth ferrites and chromites.(4)Probing the magnetoelectric coupling of nanomultiferroics.Introduction to Nanomultiferroics is designed to serve as a reference book for varied group of postgraduate & research students of Physics and many material chemistry discipline,research scientist.During the past five decades,revolutionary breakthrough has occurred in the understanding of multiferroics and magnetoelectric phenomena,both from perspective of theory and experiments.The book is divided into five parts.The first covers the brief overview of multiferroics,their types and applications.The second is devoted to the effect of reduced particle size by developing new routes from wet-chemical synthesis method,on the dielectric,magnetic,magnetoelectric properties and Raman spectra.Third and fourth parts deal the rich interplay of competing magnetic interactions between rare earth ions.The part fifth concludes summary and future prospects of nanomultiferroics.
