JPhysD has just last week published a special issue on Heusler compounds, looking at magnetoresistive devices, Mn-based Heusler compounds and L10 ordered alloys with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), and devices based on spin dynamics in Heusler compounds and oxides with low spin relaxation. As the Guest Editors explain:
This special issue aims to help researchers working in spintronics, magnonics, electronics and related fields to familiarize themselves with new spintronics materials and the related investigative methods.
The special issue is free to read until 13 July 2015.
