Diamagnetism

The most important keys for diamagnetism are that the materials are very weakly respond to magnetic fields. Also,the atoms or molecules of diamagnetic materials contain no unpaired spins and the electrons orbiting in atoms oppose the action of the external field as with Lenz’s law. lastly.diamagnetism is not affected by changes in temperature and the value of the susceptibility is always negative.

    Applying a external magnetic field specifically causes a change in the orbital angular frequencies of the electrons. This change is equivalent to magnetic moment in the opposite direction to that of the field.

    in other words the applied magnetic field induces an opposing field within the material.
