Topic 3. Nanomagnetics and Spintronics
Session Chair:
- Dr. Chen Jingsheng, Data Storage Institute (Singapore)
Nanomagnetics plays a very important role in today's advanced magnetic materials. Nanostructured magnetic materials are intensively investigated because of their unique magnetic, electronic and optic properties. The successful application of MR , GMR and TMR sensor in magnetic recording head has pushed the further development of spinelectronics. The topics include but not limited to the following:
- Magnetic thin films and nanostructures in magnetic recording
- Diluted magnetic semicondouctors
- Magnetoresistance, Giant magnetoresistance and Tunneling magnetoresistance materials and device
- Magneto-electronic, magneto-optic and magneto-mechanical properties of nanostructured magnetic materials
- Nanomagnets with high energy products
- Nanomagnets in soft-magnetic and microwave applications
- Nanostructured Magnetic materials for bio-medical applications
- Synthesis, characterization and applications of magnetic nanoparticles
- Domain structure and magnetization reversal mechanisms of magnetic nanostructures
- Modeling/simulation of magnetic nanostructures
