Paramagnetic And Diamagnetic And Ferromagnetic Vector Illustration

Paramagnetic materials are substances that exhibit a weak attraction to magnetic fields due to the presence of unpaired electrons in their atomic or molecular orbitals. These materials have a positive magnetic susceptibility, meaning they become magnetized in the direction of an applied magnetic field but lose their magnetism when the field is removed. Diamagnetic materials are substances that exhibit a weak repulsion to magnetic fields due to the paired arrangement of electrons in their atomic or molecular orbitals. Unlike paramagnetic materials, which align with an external magnetic field, diamagnetic materials have a negative magnetic susceptibility and are repelled by magnetic fields. Ferromagnetic materials are substances that exhibit spontaneous magnetization and strong attraction to magnetic fields. These materials retain their magnetization even after the external magnetic field is removed, due to the alignment of magnetic domains within their structure.
