Now a days, large number of information are stored in (or) retrieved from the storage devices, by using the magnetic phenomena. The main part of these magnetic storage devices is magnetic recording heads and they function according to the principles of magnetic induction.
Generally Ferro or ferromagnetic materials are used in the storage devices, because in this type of materials only the magnetic interaction between any two dipoles aligns themselves parallel to each other. Due to this parallel alignment, even if we apply small amount of magnetic field, a large value of magnetization is produced. By using this property information are stored in the storage devices.
In the storage devices, the recording of digital data(0’s and1’s) depends upon the direction of magnetization in the medium.
