A PNR study of cobalt nitride films for spin injection and spin engineering a...
We propose to study cobalt nitride films using PNR with a view to their use in spin injection & spin engineering applications. Such systems have had little attention in the... -
Characterisation of electrodeposited CoNiCu multilayer mesostructures for bio...
We propose to study electrodeposited films, both patterned and unpatterned, of CoNiCu alloy layers interleaved with pure Cu spacer layers. The magnetic layers are engineered... -
Polyamorphism in Glassy GeO2
The object of this proposal is to determine, by using neutron diffraction, the nature of the polyamorphic phase transition that occurs in glassy GeO2 with increasing pressure.... -
Dynamic Nuclear Polarization in GaAs by electrical spin injection
We propose to measure the dynamic nuclear polarization in a GaAs-based structure caused by electrical injection of a spin-polarized current using polarized neutron... -
The effect of process parameters on residual strain generation and microstruc...
The aim of this work is to characterise the residual stresses in the longitudinal, transverse ans short transverse directions for 11 welds in 6.5mm thick HSLA-65 (ferritic) and... -
Electric field effect on the interfacial uncompensated spins in the Co/BiFeO3...
We propose a study on the electric field control of uncompensated spins in the Co/BiFeO3/STO bilayer system by PNR. Multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) has attracted enormous interest... -
Magnetic properties of EuO/Fe interface
EuO is a model ferromagnet, with great potential in spintronics, but also of great interest from a theoretical point of view. Here we propose to study the magnetic proximity... -
Mechanism of network collapse in strong network glass forming systems
The object of this proposal is to investigate the mechanism of network collapse in the ¿strong¿ network glass forming system GeO2 in the pressure range between 9 and 16 GPa... -
EuO tunnel barriers and metallic interfaces
The tunneling magnetoresistance ratio of a magnetic tunnelling junction is influenced by many different factors, one of which is hybridization at the metal/oxide interface. We... -
La dopped EuO
Currently one of the biggest challenges in spintronics is the generation and control of a spin polarized current at room temperature. Spin injection from europium monoxide is of... -
Study of change in magnetic momentum in Ni/NiO/Ni structures
NiO has useful electronic, magnetic and catalytic properties. It is also used in creation of OxRRAM¿s, that are considered as a better alternative to Flash memory due its... -
Influence of minority-spin surface resonance on tunnelling anisotropic magnet...
We propose to study Fe based tunnelling anisotropic magnetoresistance (TAMR) structures. TAMR is a newly discovered effect potentially combining advantages of the anisotropic MR...
