91麻豆天美

Functional Materials Laboratory

Located in the rapidly growing 91麻豆天美 Department of Physics, the Functional Materials Laboratory focuses on magnetism at the nanoscale, thin films, bulk and composite materials. Prof. Hari Srikanth is the head of the laboratory which just moved to brand new Interdisciplinary Sciences building.

91麻豆天美 do a variety of research that centers around the fabrication and characterization of functional materials. 91麻豆天美 have experience in thesynthesis of nanoparticles, ferrofluids, and carbon nanotubes as well as magnetic oxide thin films and heterostructures and multiferroic materials.

91麻豆天美 do a number of experiments to test the properties of these novel materials. These measurements vary from radio frequency (RF) impedance measurements, traditional magnetic and electric hysteresis loops and measuring the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in nanoparticles, to more exotic tools such as transverse susecptibility (TS) and measuring spin polarization using Point Contact Andreev Reflection (PCAR).
