Overview

Since the discovery of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in Mn4N epitaxial films in 2012, Mn4N has attracted much attention as a rare-earth free new spintronics material. The recent record velocity of current-induced magnetic wall motion achieved on Mn4N and compensated Mn4N microstrips at room temperature has attracted a great deal of attention, and spin transfer torques have renewed interest. Mn4N shows interesting phenomena that magnetization and angular momentum compensation due to impurity doping occur at room temperature. It also has other very unusual properties such as a negative thermal expansion coefficient. In addition, a very large number of different kinds of mixed crystals have been formed. Specifically, they include Mn4N doped with various impurities (Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Al, In, Ga, Ge, Sn, Pd, Ag, Sb, Pt, Au, Gd, and Dy). Key Features: Provides a comprehensive review of ferrimagnet Mn4N, an electrode material of growing interest Covers a wide range of topics from crystal growth to magnetic properties of Mn4N and their mixed crystals Presents categorized relevant references The first book on the subject of ferrimagnet Mn4N
