Permanent magnets are essential components in everyday technologies, including in
energy conversion and transportation. Since the discovery of rare-earth-based permanent …

Recent advances in rare-earth-free hard-magnetic materials including magnetic bulk, thin
films, nanocomposites and nanostructures are introduced. Since the costs of the rare-earth …

Cobalt (Co) is one of the most important 3d transition metal elements used in the
development of magnetic materials, especially in hard magnetic materials, from the early Co …

With the advent of high performance permanent magnets based on the rare-earth (RE)
elements such as Sm-Co, Nd-Fe-B alloys in 1980s, the application areas have been …

We have explored, computationally and experimentally, the magnetic properties of (Fe 1− x
Co x) 2 B alloys. Calculations provide a good agreement with experiment in terms of the …

The current status of R&D activities and major results are briefly reviewed, mainly focusing
on work reported since about 2010. Developments in and perspectives on less-Dy and Dy …

We have analyzed by density functional theory calculations the structural and magnetic
properties of Fe-Co alloys doped by carbon. In analogy with the formation of martensite in …

Magnetocrystalline anisotropy in transition metal alloys (FePt, CoPt, FePd, MnAl, MnGa, and
FeCo) was studied using first-principles calculations to elucidate its specific mechanism. The …

We present results of systematic fully relativistic first-principles calculations of the uniaxial
magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) of a disordered and partially ordered tetragonal Fe-Co …

Permanent magnets, especially rare-earth based magnets, are widely used in energy-critical
technologies in many modern applications, involving energy conversion and information …
