Oxidation of atmospheric aerosol can produce cloud condensation nuclei capable of changing the reflectivity and lifetime of clouds. The oxidation of organic film on atmospheric... -
Search for antiferromagnetic coupling in ferromagnetic oxide LSMO-LCMO multil...
La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (LCMO) and La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) are two oxide ferromagnetic materials. They will be grown on single crystal SrTiO3 substrate. This allows a highly textured... -
Remotely Induced Magnetism in a Normal Metal using a Superconductor/Ferromagn...
Superconductivity and ferromagnetism are usually antagonistic phenomenon; however in nanoscale heterostructures we may juxtapose the two effects to create exotic pairing... -
