Superparamagnet
A superparamagnet is a type of magnetic material that exhibits unique magnetic properties at the nanoscale. Unlike traditional magnets, which can retain their magnetization, superparamagnets do not have a permanent magnetic moment. Instead, they can quickly switch their magnetization direction in response to an external magnetic field, making them useful in various applications.
These materials are often found in nanoparticles, where their size allows them to overcome magnetic interactions that would typically cause them to behave like ferromagnets. Superparamagnetic materials are commonly used in applications such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), data storage, and biomedical research.
