Magnetic Materials and Devices
Explore the fundamentals and applications of magnetic materials, in particular to nano-devices; examine the origin of magnetism in oxides and metals; magnetic switching mechanisms, and how spin structures arise such as domain walls and topologically-protected spin states; discuss applications to future computing nano-devices. Electrical and Computer Engineering 334M and Electrical Engineering 379K (Topic: Magnetic Materials and Devices) may not both be counted. Three lecture hours a week for one semester.
