Abstract
Magnetic Materials Ferromagnetic materials show a permanent magnetic dipole, whereas superparamagnetic ones only show magnetic properties under an applied field. Some materials, like ferrofluids, show liquid-like behavior but do not retain their magnetization in the absence of an applied field. Liu et al. show remnant magnetization of otherwise superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles at an oil-water interface of emulsion droplets (see the Perspective by Dreyfus). The permanent magnetization could be controlled by coupling and uncoupling the magnetization of individual nanoparticles, making it possible to “write and erase” shapes of the droplets or to elongate them into cylinders.
