A <physicist> who coauthored the discovery of <exchange bias> with <C. P. Bean>. Their cobalt particles had an oxide shell, placing <ferromagnetism> in direct contact with <antiferromagnetism>. The resulting directional effect in magnetic reversal made the interface an active part of the experiment and motivated the study of coupling between unlike magnetic materials.<New Magnetic Anisotropy by W. H. Meiklejohn and C. P. Bean>[Original exchange-anisotropy report; cobalt metal and oxide interface]{ref}
