The goal of this project is to advance our understanding of new phases and microstructures of rare-earth and transition-metal alloys and compounds. In particular we investigate several classes of materials which are expected to have high magnetizations and coercivities, which are necessary conditions for high performance permanent magnet and related applications. Hard and semi-hard magnetic materials form the basis of much of the electric power and information storage industries and the discovery of new and less expensive materials with outstanding properties is of great interest.
