Abstract

Soft ferromagnetic microwires have attracted strong research interest in the past two decades in the physics and materials community, in that they can be conveniently fabricated into microsized continuous wires with uniform and singular mechanical and magnetic properties, including their outstanding giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) properties. Massive research efforts have been devoted to two directions: (i) the microwires’ (magnetic) structure optimisation in the context of various sensor applications in megahertz and (ii) innovative design of mesostructure constituted by arrays of wires in composites for microwave (gigahertz) applications such as structural health self-monitoring and absorption/shielding. This comprehensive book that bridges the knowledge of the microwires themselves and their multifunctional polymer composite materials is aimed at maximising the value of previous studies on either microwires or their composites and inspiring further efforts on this line of work with target applications extended herein.
