Study of Co- and Fe-doped and undoped hafnium oxide tunnel barrier structures
We propose to investigate with polarized neutron reflection (PNR) measurements the magnetic moment and interface properties of Co- and Fe-doped HfO2 thin films and undoped HfO2... -
Coexistence of Superconductivity and Magnetism in Thin Films
We have recently used a combination of PNR and low energy muon spin rotation (LEM) to detect the coexistence of an induced SDW and superconductivity in the superconducting layer... -
Non-local electrodynamics effect in an ¿extreme¿ low-k superconductor
We intend to perform accurate measurements of the magnetic field profile in the Meissner state of an ¿extreme¿ low-k superconductor (In, k = 0.06, k is the Ginzburg-Landau... -
Proving ground-state ordering in Artificial Spin-Ice systems formed by sub-10...
The main purpose of the experiment proposed here is to study the effects of thermalisation on Artificial Spin-Ice (ASI) systems formed by nanomagnets with sub-100 nm lateral... -
Magnetic interactions in ferromagnetic topological insulator multilayer struc...
Topological insulators are one of the most important recent discoveries in condensed matter physics. The topological surface state can become gapped when ferromagnetic order is... -
Investigation of the interfacial spin texture in ferromagnetically doped topo...
We propose to make use of neutron wave guiding effects to enhance interfacial sensitivity and study the spin texture of individual interfaces between ferromagnetically doped... -
A study of the induced magnetism in Pd-Ni nanoparticles
Induced magnetic order in nominally non-magnetic materials due to the effect of proximity to magnetically ordered materials is a subject of great interest. There has been quite...
