Inhaltsangabe

Situated at the forefront of interdisciplinary research on ferromagnetic microwires and their multifunctional composites, this book starts with a comprehensive treatment of the processing, structure, properties and applications of magnetic microwires. Special emphasis is placed on the giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) effect, which forms the basis for developing high-performance magnetic sensors. After defining the key criteria for selecting microwires for various types of GMI sensors, the book illustrates how ferromagnetic microwires are employed as functional fillers to create a new class of composite materials with multiple functionalities for sensing and microwave applications. Readers are introduced to state-of-the-art fabrication methods, microwave tunable properties, microwave absorption and shielding behaviours, as well as the metamaterial characteristics of these newly developed ferromagnetic microwire composites. Lastly, potential engineering applications are proposed so as tohighlight the most promising perspectives, current challenges and possible solutions.

He received B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from Vietnam National University in 2000, Chungbuk National University in 2003, and Bristol University in 2006, respectively.  Dr. Phan’s research interests lie in the physics and applications of magnetic materials. He is a leading expert in the area of functional magnetic materials and nanostructures with magnetocaloric and magnetoimpedance effects for energy-efficient magnetic refrigeration and smart sensor technologies. He has co-authored more than 200 peer-reviewed journal papers (h-index: 30), 4 review papers, and 5 book chapters. He serves as an Associate Editor of the Journal of Electronic Materials (ISI journal, Impact factor: 1.8) and is an active reviewer for more than 90 major international journals, with “Outstanding Referee” awards from the Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials in 2013 and 2015. He has delivered plenary and invited talks at professional meetings on Magnetism and Magnetic Materials (2007-present) and involved in organizing international conferences on Nanomaterials, Energy and Nanotechnology (2011-present).

Prof. Hua-Xin Peng

Prof. Hua-Xin Peng joined Zhejiang University as a Distinguished Professor of Aerospace Materials in 2014 under the Global Talent Recruitment Plan from the University of Bristol, UK where he was a full Professor in the Advanced Composites Centre for Innovation and Science (ACCIS) in the Department of Aerospace Engineering. He gained his PhD (1996) and MSc (1993) in composite materials in Harbin Institute of Technology and BEng (1990) in Zhejiang University.  He was the founding Deputy Director of the Bristol Centre for Nanoscience and Quantum Information and worked as a Research Fellow in the Materials Department at Oxford University (2001-2) and Brunel University (1998-2000).  His research activities focus on nanomaterial through engineering to applications and innovative design of composite microstructures for multi-functionalities. The latter involves the development of ferromagnetic microwire (meta-) composites for a range of ingenious engineering applications such as structural health monitoring and microwave absorption.  Prof. Peng is the founding Director of the Institute for Composites Science Innovation (InCSI)at Zhejiang University and one of the founding Editors of the Elsevier journal Composites Communications (COCO).
