Electromagnetic materials

Electromagnetic materials are substances that respond to electromagnetic fields—think of electric and magnetic forces—as well as produce or influence these fields. Examples include metals like copper and iron, which conduct electricity and are attracted to magnets, and special materials like ferrites, used in electronic devices. These materials are vital in technologies such as transformers, inductors, and wireless communication equipment because their properties enable the generation, control, and transmission of electromagnetic energy efficiently. Understanding electromagnetic materials helps improve electronic systems, power transfer, and communication technologies that are essential to modern life.
