Novel magnetic materials for low loss devices at high frequencies

The demonstration of organic magnetic materials has offered the challenge of finding polymer (organic) materials in which there is sufficient electronic exchange as well as stability both thermally and chemically. This paper gives an overview of this search past, present, and future and the synthesis of promising new complex polymer building blocks which can yield luminescent, ferro-, ferri-, and super-paramagnetic materials for devices of the future in power, storage, displays, and communications devices. The use of these methods to produce ferri-, para-, and superparamagnetic materials has changed our way of thinking about how to fabricate magnetic devices with properties heretofore unrealizable. New materials from the saccharide class of materials are explained. Some devices made from these materials are discussed.
