“Takeuchi believes the research opens the door on materials with other combinations of useful properties, such as ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, and shape memory effect.”
“Last year he and his graduate student found the first evidence for ferroelectricity in soft animal tissue.”
“Multiferroics are a class of materials in which both magnetism and ferroelectricity coexist simultaneously.”
“An antiferromagnet is a special kind of ferrimagnet where adjacent spin moments completely cancel.”
“The iron oxides that form as corrosion on rebar and other steel elements are mixtures of ferrimagnet crystallites distinguished by differences in stoichiometry and structure.”
