Definition: Diamagnetic Substances

Substances which when placed in a magnetic field are feebly magnetised in a direction opposite to that of the magnetising field are called diamagnetic substances.

Key Points: Diamagnetism

  • Relative permeability ranges: μr < 1 (as B is less than μ₀H); also 1 > μr > 0, μ < μ0
  • Diamagnetic: B < B0​; Bm < B0
  • Magnetic susceptibility (χ): low and negative, ∣χ∣ ≈ 1; small, negative and temperature-independent, χm ∝ T0
  • Magnetic moment: very low (≈ 0)
  • Intensity of magnetisation (I) vs H: I is small, negative, varies linearly with H (I and H in opposite direction, I is negative with respect to H)
