Amid several conferences, pending proposals and graduating students from his laboratory, Nanoscale & Quantum Phenomena Institute member and Physics & Astronomy Professor Dr. Arthur Smith has had quite the sabbatical exploring spintronic research. With the help of his current graduate students Sneha Upadhyay , Joseph Perry Corbett, and undergraduate Alexandra Semposki, Smith […]

  Ohio University physicists Dr. Arthur R. Smith and Dr. Sergio Ulloa have published side-by-side papers about understanding of the chemical compound chromium nitride, a material with a number of interesting but fairly controversial electronic, magnetic, and structural properties. Ulloa and Smith are members of OHIO’s Nanoscale and Quantum Phenomena […]

By Jean Andrews Physics & Astronomy Oscar Avalos, doctoral student in Physics & Astronomy,  Visiting Researcher Diego Mastrogiuseppe, and Dr. Sergio Ulloa, Professor of Physics at Ohio University, report discovering unusually long-reaching spintronic interactions at the atomic level in a newly published article. It is likely that future electronic devices and […]

 By Jean Andrews Physics & Astronomy Diego Mastrogiuseppe, a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Physics & Astronomy, and faculty members Dr. Nancy Sandler and Dr. Sergio Ulloa, have discovered a new way to control the interaction of magnetic impurities at the nanoscale level. The article describing their work has […]

 By Jean Andrews Physics & Astronomy While in Mainz, Germany, last spring, Jean Andrews, a special projects assistant in the Department of Physics and Astronomy, paid a visit to the Johannes Gutenberg University where she interviewed theoretical physicist and Ohio University alum Dr. Jairo Sinova ’94B.S. HTC Physics. The newly […]

The Physics & Astronomy Colloquium Series presents Michael E. Flatté of the University of Iowa on “Single Spintronics—electrical manipulation of single spins in solids” on Friday, Sept. 5, at 4:10 p.m. in Walter 245. Abstract: Recent observations of the coupling between pairs of magnetic atoms in a solid, the hysteresis […]

Ohio University research merges manganese, gallium nitride in uniform layer Ten years ago, scientists were convinced that a combination of manganese and gallium nitride could be a key material to create spintronics, the next generation of electronic devices that operate on properties found at the nanoscale. But researchers grew discouraged […]
