Cuprates and Manganites: Application in Magnetic Sensors

The book presents the doctoral work carried out by the author that investigated the magnetic and transport properties of two most important functional materials, namely the high-T¬c superconducting cuprates and colossal magneto resistive manganites. These two materials have immense potential in applications such as magnetic read heads and ultrra-low magnetic field sensing in biomedical or geomagnetic fields.
