These magnets exhibit large magnetization at and above room temperature. The advent of these soft magnets offers numerous and controllable processing opportunities, including the potential to tune magnetic and other properties through the considered choice of the constituent organic; a feature that is not viable with the preparatory techniques employed for inorganic magnets. less | Primary: University of Victoria
