Welcome to
the Institute for Magnetics Research’s [IMR] Web site.
IMR focuses its work on modeling, experimental measurements, and the
use of magnetic materials. The materials most commonly studied are
magnetic nanostructures, magnetic recording media, magneto-optical
media, and magnetostrictive materials. Properties studied include Bose-Einstein Condensation in nanoparticles. Applications include computer
hard drives, floppy disks and read/write memories, microwave devices,
magnetostrictive transducers and magnetic refrigeration. Modeling
methods employed include Preisach based models, micromagnetics and
nonlinear finite element models. Past and present organizations that
have cooperated with the Institute in conducting research include NIST
Gaithersburg, NSF,Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP), DARPA, IBM,
Fuji and ANSYS Software.
