This two-volume collection presents a curated compendium of our scientific contributions, over the past four decades, broadly in the fields of magnetism, condensed matter physics, materials science, and bioengineering. These works are unified by a central theme: understanding and engineering magnetic phenomena at the nanoscale across a wide range of material systems, fabrication and characterization techniques, and applications—from information technology to translational biomedicine. Volume I: Biomedical Nanomagnetics centers on the most recent two decades of our research and focuses on the design, synthesis, and functionalization of magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical imaging, diagnostics, and therapy. The chapters explore both foundational and translational aspects of magnetic particle imaging (MPI), magnetic fluid hyperthermia and targeted drug delivery. This work is grounded in extensive materials engineering—including colloidal synthesis, core–shell structuring, and surface ligand strategies—and is supported by in-depth studies of magnetic relaxation dynamics, particle–field interactions, and biocompatibility. The volume emphasizes the critical interdependence between structure, function, and biological performance, in vivo, aiming to establish a “materials-to-medicine” pipeline in which precisely engineered and biocompatible nanostructures enable high-resolution clinical imaging and theranostic interventions. Volume II: Solid-State Nanomagnetism turns to the earlier phase of my career, which focused on thin-film and patterned magnetic systems. It documents our long-standing investigations into epitaxial exchange bias, nanofabrication, and spin-dependent phenomena in thin films and lithographically patterned structures. Topics include magnetization reversal in confined geometries, domain wall dynamics, anisotropy engineering, and nanoimprint lithography. A significant portion of the volume is dedicated to exchange-biased heterostructures—particularly epitaxial MnPd/Fe and IrMn/Fe bilayers—where spin-flop coupling, uncompensated interfacial moments, and asymmetric reversal behaviors are probed using X-ray microscopy, electron holography, and advanced magnetometry. Additional chapters address artificial spin ice, magnetic logic devices, dilute magnetic semiconductors, and colossal magnetoresistive oxides, highlighting how fundamental materials design can lead to new paradigms in magnetic information processing and emergent quantum functionality. Together, these two volumes offer a comprehensive record of our original research that is both systematic and exploratory. Volume I focuses on biomedical applications and nanoparticle engineering; Volume II examines thin-film systems, exchange interactions, and nanoscale patterning. The body of work reflects our focus on use-inspired basic science —bridging fundamental materials science with applicationdriven innovation—and is intended both as a scientific archive and a testament to the curiosity-driven, application-oriented, interdisciplinary approach that has shaped this research. It may also serve as a foundation for future innovation in the fields of nanomagnetism, spintronics, biomedical imaging, and functional materials science. This work, reflecting the contributions of my research group, rests on a foundation built by many. I am deeply indebted to my students and postdoctoral fellows—many of whom have gone on to become leaders in their own right—for their creativity, dedication, and contributions. I am also grateful to mentors, colleagues, collaborators, and funding agencies whose support and insights have been invaluable across decades of experimentation, discussion, and discovery. The path of research is seldom linear. It evolves through cycles of discovery, refinement, and reevaluation. These volumes capture that journey as it unfolded within my research program, while also pointing toward the future—where magnetism at the nanoscale will continue to shape technologies in medicine, information, sensing, and beyond.
