The magnetoelectric properties of multiferroic materials have a high potential for applications in the fields of data storage, spin valves, spintronics, memories, sensors and microelectronic devices. The book presents both a detailed literature review of the field, and the experimental results obtained from various characterization and analytical techniques performed on four series of lanthanum orthoferrite type multiferroics. These materials have been used in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC), magneto-hydrodynamic power generation (MHD), capacitors and energy storage devices in microelectronics, non-volatile magnetic memory devices and ferroelectric random access memories (Fe-RAM).Keywords: Multiferroics, Lanthanum Orthoferrites, Ferromagnetism, Ferroelectricity, Electrical Conductivity, Thermal Stability, Dielectric Constant, Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC), Magneto-Hydrodynamic Power Generation (MHD), Capacitors, Energy Storage Devices, Magnetic Memory Devices, Ferroelectric Random Access Memories (Fe-RAM), Charge Density Measurements.

The discipline of Pharmaceutical microbiology has undergone revolutionary changes in last two decades. Our understanding about microbes, their identification and controlling process are in need of Phama and health industry. The newer microbiological techniques has made in roads of understanding about microbes and their characters. It is our endeavor to provide comprehensive text book for practical microbiology to the students of degree in Pharmacy, Pharm D and Microbiology. We are thankful to Publisher Lambert Academic Publishing, European Union and staff members for their co-operation in bringing out this book.
