Funded Activity Summary

Memory effects in magnetic metals: origin, utility and control in magnetoelectronics using layered nanopatterns. The work is in the important area of magneto-electronics, a field recognised by the 2007 Nobel Prize awarded in Physics. Training opportunities for Honours and postgraduate students will be provided at the forefront of this high profile area, thereby expanding Australian knowledge base and capability. New opportunities for interaction between several groups in Australia will be created. The projects will involve PhD students shared between Australian institutions and collaborating groups overseas, thereby cementing collaborations while simultaneously providing unique training environments. The project will use and support activities associated with the Australian major facilities.
