Program Highlights

Ferroelectric Oxide Directly on Silicon

Silicon/silicon dioxide is arguably the most important technological interface. With the end of

Spin Transport in Nanowires

The interplay between spin transport and exchange coupling profoundly affects charge transport between conventional metals and ferromagnets. This results in  giant magnetoresistance and the spin valve

Discover Magazine Names NYU Physics Finding One of Top Stories of 2009

The NYU team, led by Jasna Brujic, an assistant professor in NYU’s Department of Physics, developed an innovative way to tabulate the number of spheres-they created a method for determining how spheres

Auger Recombination in Quantum Dot Materials

Auger recombination is an important mechanism that can limit the performance of solar cells.

Enhanced Exciton Diffusion using Phosphor Sensitization

Graduate student Wade Luhman has demonstrated a route to enhance the short exciton diffusion length (LD) of organic semiconductors by combining fluorescent and phosphorescent materials into a single electron donating thin film.

Probing the Spin Polarization of Sulfide-based Spintronic Materials

Highly spin-polarized magnets have the potential to radically improve the performance of many spintronic devices.
