Permeability Concept (Cont’d)



The concepts of magnetization and magnetic dipole
moment distribution are introduced to relate
microscopic phenomena to the macroscopic fields.
The introduction of permeability eliminates the
need for us to explicitly consider microscopic
effects.
Knowing the permeability of a magnetic material
tells us all we need to know from the point of view
of macroscopic electromagnetics.

Diamagnetic Materials




In the absence of applied magnetic field, each
atom has net zero magnetic dipole moment.
In the presence of an applied magnetic field, the
angular velocities of the electronic orbits are
changed.
These induced magnetic dipole moments align
themselves opposite to the applied field.
Thus, m < 0 and r < 1.

Diamagnetic Materials (Cont’d)
Usually, diamagnetism is a very miniscule
effect in natural materials - that is r  1.
 Diamagnetism can be a big effect in
superconductors and in artificial
materials.
 Diamagnetic materials are repelled from
either pole of a magnet.

Paramagnetic Materials


In the absence of applied magnetic field, each
atom has net non-zero (but weak) magnetic
dipole moment. These magnetic dipoles
moments are randomly oriented so that the net
macroscopic magnetization is zero.
In the presence of an applied magnetic field, the
magnetic dipoles align themselves with the
applied field so that m > 0 and r > 1.



Ferromagnetic materials include iron, nickel and
cobalt and compounds containing these elements.
In the absence of applied magnetic field, each atom
has very strong magnetic dipole moments due to
uncompensated electron spins.
Regions of many atoms with aligned dipole
moments called domains form.
In the absence of applied magnetic field, the
domains are randomly oriented so that the net
macroscopic magnetization is zero.
12
Lecture 8

Antiferromagnetic Materials



Antiferromagnetic materials include chromium
and manganese.
In antiferromagnetic materials, the magnetic
moments of individual atoms are strong, but
adjacent atoms align in opposite directions.
The macroscopic magnetization of the material
is negligible even in the presence of an applied
field.

Ferrimagnetic Materials



Ferrimagnetic materials include oxides of iron,
nickel, or cobalt.
The magnetic moments of adjacent atoms are
aligned opposite to each other, but there is
incomplete cancellation of the moments because
they are not equal.
Thus, there is a net magnetic moment within a
domain.

In the absence of applied magnetic field, the
domains are randomly oriented so that the net
macroscopic magnetization is zero.
In the presence of an applied magnetic field, the

ferromagnetic materials, but are still substantial.




Ferrites are the most useful ferrimagnetic
materials.
Ferrites are ceramic material containing
compounds of iron.
Ferrites are non-conducting magnetic media
so eddy current and ohmic losses are less
than for ferromagnetic materials.
Ferrites are often used as transformer cores at
radio frequencies (RF).

Fundamental Laws of
Magnetostatics


The integral forms of the fundamental laws are
more general because they apply over regions of
space. The differential forms are only valid at a
point.
From the integral forms of the fundamental laws
both the differential equations governing the
field within a medium and the boundary
conditions at the interface between two media
can be derived.

Boundary Conditions

Within a homogeneous
medium, there are no
abrupt changes in H or
B. However, at the
interface between two
different media (having
two different values of

or both of these must
change abruptly.

fact that current carrying wires exert forces on

instruments such as voltmeters and ammeters.
