Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is gaining attention as a thin film deposition method, uniquely
suitable for depositing uniform and conformal films on complex three-dimensional …

Over the past decade intensive research efforts have been carried out by researchers
around the globe on exploring the effects of dilute doping of magnetic impurities on the …

Room-temperature ferromagnetism has been observed in nanoparticles (7–30 nm diam) of
nonmagnetic oxides such as CeO 2, Al 2 O 3, ZnO, In 2 O 3, and SnO 2. The saturated …

Room-temperature ferromagnetism is exhibited by nanoparticles of a variety of inorganic
materials although they are intrinsically non-magnetic. Typical of such nanomaterials are the …

Dilute magnetic oxides are transparent, wide-bandgap materials that behave
ferromagnetically when doped with a few percent of a magnetic 3d cation. The magnetism …

The existence of high-temperature ferromagnetism in thin films and nanoparticles of oxides
containing small quantities of magnetic dopants remains controversial. Some regard these …

Nonvolatile digital circuits that retain their logic states even when their power sources are
rapidly switched on and off would make possible a new type of computer. Although …

A new model is proposed for ferromagnetism associated with defects in the bulk or at the
surface of nanoparticles. The basic idea is that a narrow, structured local density of states N …

This review presents the recent progress in computational materials design, experimental
