Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2022-2023.

Fundamentals of magnetism, magnetic materials, and their applications. Topics include: sources of magnetism, types of magnetism, theory of electronic magnetism, magnetic anisotropy energies, domain theory, magnetic resonance, magnetostriction and magnetoelasticity, spin torques, thin-film phenomena, spin caloritronics, and permanent magnets. Current device and industry applications relevant to each topic will be discussed.

When Offered Fall.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: ECE 3030 or AEP 3550 - AEP 3560 sequence or equivalent.

Outcomes
  • Develop an ability to understand magnetic phenomena and predict magnetic behavior based on the competing anisotropy energies involved.
  • Develop an ability to design magnetic and spintronic devices to meet the desired needs of industry and research.
