Abstract

It is technology that fixes the use of electromagnetic materials, but again it is science that infers the behaviour of the material. Material’s response towards electromagnetic fields is decided by the displacement of material’s free and bonded electrons by the electric fields in addition to the atomic moment’s orientation by magnetic fields.
