Research programme:
Laboratory is engaged in the studies (preparation, structure characterization, magnetic and transport measurements) of artificial magnetic layered structures. The main goal of our investigations performed in last years was related to optimization of
GMR and
TMR (giant and tunnel magnetoresistance effects) structures for a particular applications. Currently we are interested in investigations of new structures, for example, containing Heusler, semi-Heusler alloys and semiconductors layers.
Main instruments:
- Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM)
- Alternating Gradient Magnetometer (AGM)
- Faraday Magnetic Balance
- Ferromagnetic Resonance Spectrometers for X and Q bands
- Equipment for transport and magnetotransport measurements
- X-ray diffractometer
- Ultra-high vacuum sputtering system equiped with X-ray Photoemission Spectrometer (XPS) and Auger Electron Spectrometer (AES)
- Double face-to-face sputtering system
