We are interested in the synthesis, characterisation and modelling of magnetic materials for fundamental and applied studies. Some examples of our research include spintronics, which promises to harness the electron spin rather than just its charge for higher performance information technology, and magnetic refrigeration, which uses the temperature changes of a material during adiabatic magnetic phase transition. On a more fundamental level, our work on artificial spin ice revealed that magnetic monopoles could be observed using magnetic force microscopy. Lcick here to learn about the SPIN-Labs.
