INTRODUCTION
The properties of nanostructured magnetic materials and devices are extraordinarily different from those of conventional magnetic systems. Esoteric technical terms such as exchange coupling, giant magnetoresistance, single-domain behavior, superparamag-netism, and tunneling magnetoresistance all describe some of the unique characteristics and behavior obtainable from nanomagnetic particles, films and bulk materials.
Interesting science is nice, certainly, but practical, revenue-generating applications are even better. It turns out that the properties of nanomagnetic systems are enabling for a variety of actual and potential commercial uses, from data storage technology and nonvolatile memory to industrial sensors and cancer treatment.
This BCC report identifies current, emerging, and futuristic applications for nanomagnetic materials and devices, and evaluates actual and potential markets by application and type. Some nanomagnetic products have been on the market for years, or even decades, whereas others have yet to reach commercialization. The gamut of these nanomagnetic materials and devices is covered in this study, including products based on particles or dispersions, nanoscale thin films, and bulk nanostructured materials.
This is the first and only study to comprehensively cover nanomagnetics technology and . It is a valuable resource for those who must understand the technological and market impact of magnetic materials and devices based on nanotechnology, and for decision-makers at material and device companies.
SCOPE OF STUDY
The report contains:
- Detailed coverage of current and future applications of nanomagnetic materials and devices in three major market segments – biotechnology, industrial products, and information storage
- Detailed coverage of a myriad of applications in these fields with forecasts through 2009
- Discussion of who’s who, materials and technology, competition, commercial status, and market trends
- Industry data, company profiles, technical background information and a patent analysis.
