Ferromagnetic Material

A ferromagnetic material is a substance characterized by its strong attraction to magnets. Within its atomic structure, the magnetic moments of individual atoms align in the same direction, leading to a macroscopic magnetization. This alignment results from the parallel orientation of electron spins, promoting a collective magnetic behavior. Ferromagnetic materials exhibit a high magnetic permeability and retain a significant magnetic field even after the removal of an external magnetic force. Common examples include iron, cobalt, and nickel. These materials find applications in various technologies, such as transformers, electric motors, and magnetic storage devices, owing to their ability to enhance and sustain magnetic fields efficiently.
