Description:

Magnetic materials are used in various equipment and systems such as electric vehicle motors, power generators, and electronic devices, making them essential materials for human life. If omnipresent magnets could be used to directly convert heat into electricity, refrigerate other materials by applying a charge current or magnetic field, and actively control a heat flow, it would lead to innovative energy-saving and energy-creating technologies. In the Exploratory Research for Advanced Technology (ERATO) ‘UCHIDA Magnetic Thermal Management Materials’ project [Citation1], one of the Strategic Basic Research Programs of Japan Science and Technology (JST), we are challenging the creation of future key technologies to effectively utilize the large amount of thermal energy that is being released unused, through interdisciplinary fusion studies. This Focus Issue aims to invigorate materials science contributing to thermal management technologies by simultaneously disseminating part of the achievements from this ERATO project and cutting-edge research outcomes from leading researchers worldwide in related fields.
