Magnetic and ferroelectric materials — •Wolfgang Kleemann — Angewandte Physik, Universität Duisburg-Essen, Lotharstr.1, 47048 Duisburg, Germany

In this introductory lecture, pertinent examples, mechanisms and basic theories of magnetic and ferroelectric phase transitions will be presented. We discuss the respective ordered states, the domain structures and some functional properties of relevant materials. Owing to their close vicinity to multiferroic and magneto-electric materials, oxidic systems will be brought into focus.
