About us
The Department OPTOSPINTRONICS is focused on the development of knowledge based multifunctional materials such as:
- Heusler and half Heusler materials (NiMnSb Co2Mn(Si, Ge, Ga, Sn, Sb) as well as some solid solutions of types Co2Mn X(1-x)Yx particularly studied for their applications in spintronics;
- diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMS), mainly Co-based
- micro and nano metal organic complexes with applications in optoelectronics;
- ceramic/polymer composites with applications in informational technology;
- structured materials based on doped phosphate glasses for photonics and photonic structures
- metal plasmon structures for medical and forensic applications (e.g.real time diagnostic)
The scientists at OPTOSPINTRONICS have expertise in synthesis of powder, bulk and thin films (sol-gel, pulsed laser deposition) and characterisation (FTIR , Raman, UV-Visible-NIR, fluorescence spectrophotometry, Magneto-Optic Kerr Effect (MOKE), Seebeck-effect measurements )
