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)Y_x 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 )
